re-instatement of Alexander S. Potupa wiki page
Regarding your deletion of my father's page - http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Alexander_S._Potupa
I would like to dispute your decision. You are saying it's "Unambiguous copyright infringement of http://www.wowdolls.com/asp/en/bio.htm". Wowdolls.com as well as Potupa.com, Wow-Coupons.com are all websites belonging to me. You can check registration domain name on GoDaddy - http://who.godaddy.com/WhoIs.aspx?domain=wowdolls.com&prog_id=godaddy. All belong to me - Elena Potoupa. Here is my PR in his honor - http://news.yahoo.com/s/prweb/20090604/bs_prweb/prweb2498544. It has been my dad's wish to be in English Wikipedia.
He is currently in Russian (http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Потупа,_Александр_Сергеевич) and Belarussian (http://be.wikipedia.org/wiki/Аляксандр_Патупа) Wiki. The US Wiki placement is just a re-write of his biography overview to honor his memory and can be found on the following websites: http://www.wowdolls.com/asp/en/bio.htm, http://potupa.iatp.by/biography.html, http://www.wow-coupons.com/potupa/en/biography.php and http://potupa.com. I was the one helping to create and maintain his sites, especially in English language (since I currently reside in US). Please assist in this matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Elalpo (talk • contribs) 15:34, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- Hi there. The easiest solution would be simply to re-write the text, it certainly seems as if your father is notable enough to have an article. The other solution is to place a note on the original website states that re-use is permitted under the GFDL or released into the public domain and let me know where that note is (ie the URL), or if you hold the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org or a postal message to the Wikimedia Foundation permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so here. I hope that helps. GedUK 15:41, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- Hi and thanks for such a prompt reply. I am under a lot of stress as you can understand, but knowing my dad - this is exactly what he would've wanted. He asked me recently about placement in English Wiki and working with Wiki rules is new to me. And now as he has suddenly passed away, I am just trying hard to leave his legacy for others to simply know who he was. I have placed what you asked for (a note is on the bottom of the page) - http://www.wowdolls.com/asp/en/bio.htm. Let me know if you want me to place the same note on http://www.wow-coupons.com/potupa/en/biography.php. Many thanks again. --Elalpo (talk) 16:09, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- Perfect! :} GedUK 20:17, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
Thank You
for not speedy deleting list of important buildings in Maine. --Finjun6 (talk) 15:55, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
User:Youtuber3424/Gameguide for mario strikers charged
I made this page. I placed the speedy tag. I don't always feel like looking up exact speedy codes, and the "author reqests deletion" code is one I never use. So please, just delete the page that you can obviously see that I transfered (aka-created) and it isn't just left there hanging. --Human.v2.0 (talk) 01:58, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
- I realise that you made the page, but there's no harm in it 'hanging around', it's in Userspace rather than mainspace. Nothing links there (I seem to remember deleting the page that it was on), so if the user wants to edit it, there's no harm in that. GedUK 07:11, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
Request for lock extension dubiously denied.
I made another request following your suggestion I contact the original mediator. It was unexpectedly denied and this concerns me because the lock expires in a day. Here the response to the decision: diff. What is your opinion? I really think it is in the best interests of the article to continue the lock as its inclusion was a part of the mediation and since the mediation hasn't been completed it would logical to simply extend the lock. I hope I'm not being combative here, but I've spent a lot of time with the mediation and would not like to see it all go away. Wikifan12345 (talk) 06:19, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
- If you do not want to offer an opinion please say so now. In less than 24 hours the block will expire. I know you aren't totally familiar and I will not be upset if you refrain, but at least make it clear so I can seek a 3rd opinion. Wikifan12345 (talk) 10:37, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
- Hi there. Sorry for the delay in replying. As Tan has already declined the request, I've asked them if they're happy for me to extend it (which I am happy to do pending mediation). I didn't reply here first as I hoped to be able to come back with a firmer answer. I don't want to extend the protection until I've heard back from Tan unless i have to, so all I can give you is a holding position. Hopefully I'll here back in the next few hours. GedUK 13:03, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
- Ah well thank you. Rarely am I this impatient but since "Time is of the essence" I do not want to give the appearance of canvassing. Let me know what happens and again thanks for the response. Wikifan12345 (talk) 21:02, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Hindutash
On reflection, I unprotected the article (see this). Probably better to use other methods of dealing with tendentious editing. Thought I'd let you know (and thanks!). --RegentsPark (My narrowboat) 17:31, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, i didn't see that thread, being as it was posted in the archive! Thanks for letting me know. Let me know if you want me to keep an eye on the article. GedUK 17:42, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
Response to Tan
I posted a lengthy but revealing response to the POV of the users involved @ your section. It is long, probably boring, but try to read it all cause it is crucial. Thanks! Wikifan12345 (talk) 21:38, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
Absolutely
Thank you for your feedback this is only my second day with deeletions so I need to hear what you are telling me, thank you again. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 14:49, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
- Not a problem :) GedUK 14:52, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
After a google search I am not seeing how he is notable other than having received the OAM(of which there is not much mention). Is this the only criteria for being notable? Subverted (talk • contribs) 14:54, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
- Having an OAM is an assertion of notability. That's all that's required to get through CSD A7, CSDs have a lower threshold. If you don't think he's generally notable, WP:PROD it or nominate for WP:AFD. Hope that helps! GedUK 14:57, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, thank you for letting me know of that. I was unaware as to the narrowness of A7. Subverted (talk • contribs) 15:11, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
May I ask
The article I nominated for deletion on US insurance companies was declined. That's not an issue however I did wwant to ask what would have been a more appropriate template for that kind of a page? In my opinion it's not encyclopeadic. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 19:37, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- Well, probably a proposed deletion as that would probably be non-controversial. Failing that (if it got removed, you can't replace it), you have to go through Articles for Deletion. Let me know if you've any other queries :) GedUK 19:46, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
Paul Lessing page
Why did you delete my page? Clearly it wasn't finished yet.Spencerdanderson (talk) 20:12, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- There was no indication as to why he might be notable, which is the basic requirement for an article on wikipedia. Have a read through the Wikipedia:Your first article for more info on the sort of things wikipedia needs. GedUK 20:22, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
The AFD discussion was from 4 years ago, and all the keeps were "I like it" or "I've heard of them". Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 20:24, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- Then renom it for AfD. I don't think it would be appropriate to speedy delete something that 'passed' AfD. GedUK 20:54, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- More process wonkery, methinks. That first AFD was broker than broke. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 20:59, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- Think what you like, it would not only be inappropriate but also against policy. From WP:CSD: "If a page has survived a prior deletion discussion, it should not be speedy deleted except for newly discovered copyright violations". Regards SoWhy 21:02, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Consensus?
You feel that consensus to keep was reached on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Academic job market? 7 talk | Δ | 23:20, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- There certainly wasn't consensus to delete, and I felt that the source provided was good enough to demonstrate notability, and future direction. GedUK 16:09, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
Missing Normandy Weapons on ME2 Article
The only source for the missing weapons that I can find is on the bonus disc that came with the collector's edition for the first game. --Thejadefalcon (talk) 11:22, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- That sounds fine to me, stick it in! GedUK 11:26, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- Two issues with that. One: My Xbox died recently, making the disc unplayable until it's repaired (a week plus). Two: I didn't think I'd be allowed to use that as a source (and I wouldn't even have a clue how to create the reference for it anyway). --Thejadefalcon (talk) 11:36, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- It seems like a decent source. Ideally it should come from a third party, but first party ones are fine too. As to the method, use the {{cite video game}} template. Use the version field to specify the bonus disc. GedUK 11:48, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- Ah, thanks! Hadn't known about that. I'll get it up when the Xbox is fixed. --Thejadefalcon (talk) 11:54, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- Well, there's no real need to wait till it's fixed; if the content is on there, you could do it now, but it's up to you :) GedUK 11:57, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- I don't know exactly what it says or where. --Thejadefalcon (talk) 12:02, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- OK cool. In the meantime though, you probably should leave it out of the article until it is sourced, in case someone else takes it out. Thanks. GedUK 12:06, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- I added one of those hidden messages, so hopefully it'll stay. --Thejadefalcon (talk) 12:07, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
- My Xbox just arrived today. When I get home, I'll test it and try to draft something for the article for tomorrow. --Thejadefalcon (talk) 10:17, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
- Cool :) GedUK 10:21, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
- Okay, damn. I can't find it on the disc. Hmm... *sighs* Knowing my luck, I read it on an older version of Wikipedia. Let me explore a few places. --Thejadefalcon (talk) 10:23, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

MP7 page move?
Where did you get the idea to go against established policies and community guidelines and arbitrarily rename the MP7 article? Koalorka (talk) 20:53, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
- It was tagged as a non-controversial delete/move, so I did it. An error on my part, i should have checked. Sorry. GedUK 18:15, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
- No problem, I did not realize you were involved in moving pages. My tone was somewhat inapropriate. Koalorka (talk) 18:58, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
- I tend to do deleting pages rather than moves, but the template can allow an admin to do both. I should have checked. No problem with your tone :) GedUK 19:05, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Relisting AFDs
When relisting an AFD, please make sure:
- The relist is in line with WP:RELIST policy
- You remove the AFD from the old day discussion page
- You add the AFD to the new discussion page

Revolutions per Minute (Jason Trachtenburg album)
May I ask under which criterion this article was speedily deleted? Timmeh 20:07, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
- Hi here. It was substantially the same as the version deleted as a result of an AfD discussion, criterion G4. Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Revolutions_per_Minute_(Jason_Trachtenburg_album) GedUK 20:10, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
- That was the only AfD discussion about the article that I know of, and nobody even participated in it yet. Shouldn't an AfD discussion run for at least seven days? Timmeh 20:16, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
- Oh sorry, i'm thinking about a different article. This was deleted under criteria A9. GedUK 20:19, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Seton Hall Law ESLS
I actally was the one to create the agenda for the ESLS Symposium, so please remove your edits. I didn't want to be rude and do it myself.

Umm, I see you declined speedy. May I suggest you just put it through Google Translation and look at what you get? We could seriously waste some good-hearted person's time here by insisting on a proper translation before we bin it as junk. Akerbeltz (talk) 11:36, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Barbara A. Perry
Hello. Barbara Perry is the founder and is the current Executive Director of the Center for Civic Renewal. She provided her bio to the Center as she provided it to me, thus the similar elements. There is no actual copyright infringement, since the material has not been copyrighted by the Center. (If you go to the web site for the Center for Civic Renewal, you will see that they do not claim copyright on this material.) Also, the bio has been extensively rewritten. However, it's a bio about the same person, thus there are unavoidable similarities in the two articles (like the names of the 8 books she has written, and the 3 institutions where she went to college.) However, the Center is aware of the difficulty that I'm having with her Wikipedia copyright robot, and they are in the process of sending me a letter of permission which I will send to Wikipedia. I'm going to repost the article, and it would be helpful if you would not delete it and give the Center a few days to furnish the letter. When I have the letter of permission, I will send it to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org, and will put Barbara A. Perry in the subject line. Will somebody route the letter to you? Is there somewhere else I need to send it to make sure you will see it so that the Wiki article does not get deleted again? RSCapon (talk) 12:17, 28 June 2009 (UTC)Rob
- Hi there. Copyright is a very sensitive issue, and I err on the side of caution. I would rather you send the letter first. An OTRS volunteer will then be able to check it out. If you need to recreate the article, please do so in your own article space user:RSCapon/sandbox so that it is not in the mainspace. Thanks. GedUK 12:33, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
Also, rather than scanning a letter on letterhead, could I have Dr. Perry send an email? You will see on the website for the Center for Civic Renewal that she is the founder and Exec. Director. She could send an email address indicating that we have permission to use the biographical material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RSCapon (talk • contribs) 12:35, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
- Yes that should be fine. Preferable I expect. GedUK 12:38, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
I'll wait to resolve the copyright matter before reposting the article. I have the text saved. The email from Dr. Perry would be easier than the letter on stationery, but I can do either. The letter will take a day or two longer. This is my first Wiki article, so I'm learning the ropes. I have a number of other ideas for articles and edits. But I'd plan to get this one up and running before I attempt any others. RSCapon (talk) 12:39, 28 June 2009 (UTC)Rob
Hi Again. I see your that the email would be OK. To what email address should I have it sent? Dr. Perry's address is Perry at SBC dot edu. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RSCapon (talk • contribs) 12:41, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
- Hi there. Please send it to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org. Thanks, and sorry for being such a pain about the copyright issue, but we have to be very careful about such things, as I'm sure you can appreciate. GedUK 12:43, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
GedUK. No problem. You're just doing your job, and I'm new to Wikipedia learning the ropes. This has actually been very instructive. I'll have Dr. Perry send an email later today and will have her reference your Wiki user name in the letter. RSCapon (talk) 12:46, 28 June 2009 (UTC)Kind regards, Rob
Hi GED UK. Dr. Perry sent her email permission in from the Center for Civic Responsibility. She sent it to the email address that you directed, and her email is copied below. Could you please clear up the copyright robot message? Thanks. RSCapon (talk) 17:45, 28 June 2009 (UTC)Rob
RE: Barbara A. Perry, Copyright Permission
Dear Friends at Wikipedia:
Mr. Robert Capon has been trying to submit an article about me on Wikipedia. The article was flagged by your robot as infringing the copyright of a biosketch about me on the Center for Civic Renewal's website and was subsequently deleted by reviewer GED UK.
The similarities between the articles are unavoidable because of the facts that would exist in any biosketch, such as the eight books that I have published and the three universities from which I have received degrees.
The biosketch on the Center for Civic Renewal website was created by me, and neither I nor the Center claim copyright on it. Further, I hereby grant permission to use Mr. Capon's submission in Wikipedia.
For purposes of this permission, please be aware that I am the Founder and Executive Director of the Center for Civic Renewal, and I am granting this permission both as an individual and as the Director of the Center.
I hope this answers any questions that you might have.

- Hi there. I'll get an OTRS clerk to check it out, and when that's done, i can restore it. I don't have access to OTRS, so I'll never see the email. GedUK 19:11, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
I had not finished the article on "JOhn Olsen Lear" so can you but the page back so I can complete it. By the way the grounds you used to delete the page were bogus and you know it! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Danfitz86 (talk • contribs) 15:41, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
- He had already been discussed at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/John_Olsen_Lear where it was decided he wasn't notable. Do you have any sources that indicate that this has changed? If so, I can restore it, if not, then I won't. Additionally, my reasons were fine as far as I'm concerned. GedUK 16:53, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
I am not sure what is going on with the above article. Can you enlighten me? Sincerely, your friend, GeorgeLouis (talk) 17:22, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
- I may have cocked that up slightly, which i blame on the heat here, but it was requesting a move that was claimed to be uncontroversial, but i wasn't sure. I think the article should have the English name, and that may have been the request. If it was, I'm afraid you'll need to find a more experienced admin than me because it's complicated page move I think because hisories have to be merged, and I don't want to cock it up again. Sorry!
