This talk page conversation about a mandal page -> Balanagar mandal, Ranga Reddy district is the mandal and Balanagar, Medchal district is a place in the mandal (neighbourhood). Both pages are needed. Example: Tenali mandal and Tenali. -- Vin09(talk) 12:22, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

It should be Medchal district, recently districts reorganisation took place. -- Vin09(talk) 04:39, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

Another in Mahabubnagar district. As of now everything is fine. -- Vin09(talk) 12:49, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

Deletion of AnupamKaler

Hello Sir, Greetings. As you may aware of that you had been deleted my userpage in August due to blatant usage of Wikipedia but it wasn't my fully fault. Actually I had posted an article which get deleted and the reason stated that it's a promotional activity which wasn't so. Due to lack of citations i couldn't fullfill that compulsory object which led to you to delete my userpage. But now i fully aware of that and can affirm that i won't post any article until I have enough citations. Plz remove ban from my userpage. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anupamkaler (talkcontribs) 14:00, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Regarding deleted article "Draft:SprezzaBox"

Hi Roger, My name is Alan and I have been working on drafting an article draft:SprezzaBox. Apologies for my lack of experience in contributing here on Wikipedia also please forgive me if I am writing wrongly to you here. I am trying to follow your requirements with the article link and signature. I noticed you deleted the article due to "G11. Unambiguous advertising or promotion". I also read that the draft article can to be rewritten and replaced with text with a neutral point of view.

My question to you is how I can improve the article and make it neutral. Also if there are any specific parts that stood out as strictly promotional? I am more than willing to revise the article and learn from your expertise. Looking forward to hearing from you and thank you in advance. — AlanLoveLuu (talk) 14:20, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

  • Your service should be closed down for encouraging needless consumption. I doubt if I spent $28 a year on lifestyle and grooming items.

RACC

I see the following notice for my page, Research Administrators Certification Council (RACC): 22:14, 2 November 2016 RHaworth (talk | contribs) deleted page Draft:Research Administrators Certification Council (RACC) (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion)

I had made suggested edits given to me by other Wikipedia users to get this page published, and had submitted it for review and publishing. It is not advertising or promotion. There is a page referencing one of our certifications (Certified Research Administrator) and as a member of the RACC board of directors, I have been tasked with getting the corresponding page up that discusses our actual organization. Please undelete this page, a lot of hard work has gone into it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amgray19 (talkcontribs) 20:21, 4 November 2016 (UTC) Amgray19 (talk) 20:24, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

I very much appreciate you restoring the article. We are a nonprofit, so it would be hard to advertise something when we don't make money off it. We are a certifying body, much like the AICPA is for Certified Public Accountants. Thank you again, and have a great weekend. — Amgray19 (talk) 22:53, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

Template:Infobox Cass County Prosecutor

Hi, I have reverted your deletion of Template:Infobox Cass County Prosecutor since the reason given (T2: Template that blatantly misrepresents established policy) is inapplicable. I realise that it is the reason given in this edit: but I can see no way that {{db-policy}} (which is for WP:CSD#T2 cases (templates that are unambiguous misrepresentations of established policy) and displays "a template that is a blatant misrepresentation of established policy") is applicable to this template. -- Redrose64 (talk) 00:23, 5 November 2016 (UTC)

Bot to remove transclusions

Do you know if there is a bot that removes transclusions of deleted AfD'd templates? I see that you followed through on this discussion, which has left about 100 redlinked transclusions in articles. Thanks. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:47, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Battle Gear

Hi RHaworth. I saw that you recently speedily deleted the page Battle Gear under WP:A3 (no content). However, I looked at the article history just before it was deleted, and it looks like it was actually a longstanding redirect (since 2007) to Side by Side (game series) that had been blanked by the user just before they added the speedy deletion template. Speedy deletion should only be performed when all revisions of the page fall under the criteria, so shouldn't we have declined the speedy and reverted back to the redirect? — Mz7 (talk) 21:03, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for clarifying. {{db-move}} or mentioning the move in {{db}} would have been a little more forthright, but no harm, no foul. Mz7 (talk) 21:25, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

  • Hi there, thank you for your cooperation Mz7, RHaworth was completely correct with what I tried to do. I wanted to rename the page Side by Side to Battle Gear as oppose to keeping the re-direct as the franchise current name is Battle Gear. I do apologise for going about it the wrong way, I should have clarified a more logical reason for the deletion as oppose to stating that it's content free with my edit. — Iftekharahmed96 (talk) 21:40, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, Iftekharahmed96. I figured there was a reason and was more curious than anything. At the end of the day, Wikipedia is improved. Mz7 (talk) 21:50, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

So the next time I'm unable to move a page that should be moved, I should use {{db-move}}? yeah, I'll keep that in mind. Cheers! And thanks for being understanding Mz7. I appreciate it! Iftekharahmed96 (talk) 08:18, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

CybrHome

Hey someone last month had mailed me about CybrHome recently which I recently started using and also started contributing on their crowdsourcing portal last week. I visited its wikipedia page (where I arrived via some cached search result page after googling) but it shows no content. Deletion log showed it used to exist but not anymore. I think the delete was unnecessary and you can restore it. I came here to edit and update about their new crowdsourcing policy and new mobile app launched recently. I don't see any issues with it web app portal cybrhome.com or their mobile app as well. Thanks for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.51.234.86 (talk) 23:52, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

RHaworth, Thanks for agreeing. I have added the request on WP:DRV (on 15 nov). You can see it. Kindly restore the page so that I can work on it to update and edit. Thanks again. — 106.51.129.187 (talk) 20:14, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

RHaworth Awaiting your reply. Please look into CybrHome (www.cybrhome.com) deletion issue. Thanks! — 106.51.130.236 (talk) 21:49, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, champ

You sure do enjoy deleting things, don't you? I was looking for some information on an optics company named Barska, but apparently, like many, MANY other articles, it was deleted by little ol' you. Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for nothing. Thanks for providing literally nothing at all in the way of information. — The Cake is a Lie T / C 01:28, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

  • The Cake is a Lie, you do not deserve it because of a) the tone of your message above, b) failure to link to the article and c) your claim of "literally nothing" when two admins have told you "A7: article about a company, corporation or organization, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject". However my simplistic CoI test (look at the contribs history) tells me that you probably do not have a CoI. So I have restored the page to draft:Barska. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:52, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

If the tone of my previous message sounded hostile, it's because that's exactly how it was supposed to sound. Let's get that out of the way. It is, however, very kind of you to restore the article I wished to read with exactly the type of technicality garbage response I remember from Wikipedia's bureaucrats that caused me to leave so long ago. Thanks for that. I'd imagine undeleting articles would be very difficult for you. I do remember those many days of arguing with you lot about how all information is relevant on a website designed to provide information and how you all sure did enjoy removing it because it wasn't informnation enough in your eyes to be information-worthy. Ahhh, the bad ol' days. Cheers anyway, slick. Literally everything you restored is all I needed to know. How's that? The Cake is a Lie T / C 04:08, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

ZeroVPN has been deleted

Dear Mr. Haworth, Good day. Today I checked the wiki notices box and found this message" 10:51, 8 November 2016 RHaworth (talk | contribs) deleted page ZeroVPN (A7: Article about a company, corporation or organization, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject)" and now I found I can not edit this article anymore. I am sorry cause this is my first time to create and entry in Wiki, so maybe make some mistake and break wiki rules. Can I recreate this article again? And can you point out exactly what i did wrong so I can correct it. Thanks a million.:D — Preceding unsigned comment added by Temozhu (talkcontribs) 08:03, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

  • Unlike the previous person, in your case my simplistick CoI test leads me to recite my mantra: kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no CoI thinks your company is notable and writes about it here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:52, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

Jones Hope Wooten

Hello again RHaworth, could you email me a copy of Jones Hope Wooten; I am aware that it was deleted for being a copyright violation (after all, I tagged it) but the editor who wrote it would like a copy so they could rewrite it or apply for a release. Best wishes, jcc (tea and biscuits) 19:27, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

My "COI meter" is a little bit more relaxed than yours- Njorland passes my test as they've 1) been editing Wikipedia since 2011 2) bothered to ask for help 3) edited different articles. I'm not saying that means they have no COI, just that they deserve some of my time. I didn't notice draft:Jamie Wooten. And I would have definitively stated that it's at the copyvio source, but the fact is I can't remember whether it was wholly copied and pasted or not- all I remember is an Earwig value of 55% or something around that, and it'd be unfair to say "it's all copied and pasted" if I can't remember myself. Too bad if you won't give the wikitext. Best wishes, jcc (tea and biscuits) 16:47, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) The best thing you can do here, jcc, is to read this, then go here, then you don't need to ask! Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:16, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

AGE-u-cate Training Institute

Hello RHaworth, My name is John Brandon. I'm vice president of AGE-u-cate Training Institute. Recently, I worked on an article for 3 days and finally thought it was in keeping within the Wikipedia guidelines for submission. My wife, president of the company, is mildly featured in the article AGE-u-cate Training Institute as the president and founder. We read and re-read the article many times to ensure that it would not appear to be advertising. It was factual and informative with regard to why the company was started. We cited many independent references and tried our best to give potential readers only the facts. When I logged back in this evening to read it again, I learned it was deleted due to unambiguous advertising. I looked at many commercial organization articles in public space to make sure we weren't in violation of Wikipedia rules. One particular article I noted was ACE Hardware. While factual, it did have the ACE Hardware logo plus other "gallery" photos embedded in the text. The ACE article sites many news articles, mainly press releases, that appear to be about promotion of ACE. AGE-u-cate Training Institute while not totally unique, serves an ever-growing need for caregiver training for a rapidly aging world. It has developed two significant training programs that deal with dementia.

I was initially informed by C.Fred that my article was deleted due to unambiguous advertising. Are our 3 days of work in vain... or do we have an opportunity to fix whatever was wrong with it? I honestly researched many commercial company Wikipedia articles that, to us, seemed much more like spam or advertising than the article we submitted. Can you restore our article draft or may I please have the text back with any suggestions that might make it more appealing to you. We did not take the Wiki guidelines lightly. Thanks. Johnhbrandon (talk) 01:54, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

As RHaworth will state, Wikipedia is not the place for COI advertising, regardless of anything or anyone; and it would honestly be best until someone who is not employed by this company, starts an article with actual news sources. I'll note, advertising is never restored and Wikipedia is not a business listing. — SwisterTwister talk 06:57, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

Green Garage Detroit page

Hello, My name is Nehe-Miah Scarborough. I am an intern for the Green Garage, a small business in Detroit. My fellow co-worker, Matthew Piper and I authored the Green Garage Wikipedia page that you deleted last week. We were wondering what specific elements of our article you deemed as self-promotion? Also, Could you help us understand how, specifically, to improve it? We strove to be factual, not promotional, when we wrote it. In addition, would you be willing to give us access to the deleted page? The link to the page is Draft:Green Garage Detroit. — NeheScar (talk) 14:58, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

Deleted page

Hi there. You recently deleted the page about a company I work for, Adaptavist. I was under the impression that it was appropriate to have a Wikipedia page about a company, especially one who's activities are referenced in other Civil Pages. If it is the nature of the wording that you have an issue with then I would like the opportunity to amend the wording. Would consider moving it to Draft so it can be edited to present be factual and less a piece of advertising? Thanks for your time and help.

Elsa Fraenkel image deletion

The following images were deleted: File:Elsa Fraenkel c 1930.jpg and File:Elsa Fraenkel Scuplture Prof Dr Conrad Mueller mathematician with eyes open c 1932.jpg. They were used in the Elsa Fraenkel article. These files were uploaded under the following license: "File licensed as "for non-commercial use only", "no derivative use", "for Wikipedia use only", "used with permission", or GFDL 1.2 only." since they respectively fall under "pictures of deceased persons, in articles about that person, provided that ever obtaining a free close substitute is not reasonably likely". I believe that this is reasonable for uploading it under the aforementioned license. If it is not, please provide the name of the correct license. — Phantom xxiii (talk) 03:20, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) You need to have at least CC-BY-SA 3.0 and proof that you either took the work or that whoever owns the copyright has given explicit permission via the Open Ticket Request System that the image is licensed that way. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:14, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Need I add anything to mine of 14 Nov above? The woman has been dead for 41 years and I was surprised that a Google image search on her name seems to throw up very few good hits so you are probably safe to re-upload these images with a fair use rationale. But have you tried contacting Elsa's daughter to see if she is in a position to release these images under a Creative Commons licence? Perhaps you are Elsa's daughter?! — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 17:41, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Hi RHaworth, you deleted my overview/list page which included non-free/fair-use-rational pictures. I somehow forgot that the inclusion of these pictures are not allowed on user pages. The problem is, I still need my list and want to keep it (without the pictures included), but I didn't make a backup and I cant retrieve the source code from history cause the whole page was deleted. Is there a way that you could retrieve and send me the original source code via email? (I won't use the images included again.)

Deletion of Gosi Khurd Dam

Article Gosi Khurd Dam was deleted giving the reason that it has no meaningful content. It is true that there was no content in the page. There is another article named Gose Khurd Dam. The Dam name is mentioned as Gosi Khurd Dam in most published sources. I created Gosi Khurd Dam article to link it to Gose Khurd Dam. Please let me know if there is any alternative way of doing the same. I am not too familiar with wiki-editing but I as understand it is not possible to change the title of the published article.

TEN Music Group

Is there currently a discussion for the TEN Music Group page which you just deleted? Despite being created by a sockpuppet, the article meets notability guidelines.

"Zara Larsson – The Full NME Cover Interview - NME". NME. 21 September 2016. Retrieved 14 November 2016. It's also been mentioned in quite a few notable independent sources, such as NME as show by the reference. — Uamaol (talk) 11:43, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

  • You need to learn to create a link when you talk about a page. If you had done so, followed the link and clicked on "what links here", you would know whether there was a discussion. And don't use <ref> on talk pages. I have emailed you the text.

Fuck Trump redirect page

Example: This protester in Maryland is using a sign with this message

Hi, I saw that you had deleted the redirect page I created because it was an attack page. I'm not trying to attack - I'm trying to direct the kinds of things you see on signs in the Protests against Donald Trump page, so that when someone makes a query, they can find the page that is likely appropriate. — Victor Grigas (talk) 12:12, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

The WMF account was entirely a login error, on my part! Sorry about that. If you look at the article about the protests for March 19, 2016 you see a line (that I didn't write) which quotes 'Fuck Trump!' and other slogans. Anyway, it appears that the debate at DRV is closed? — Victor Grigas (talk) 01:09, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

You speedily deleted this article, which is quite inappropriate since a Wikipedian argued that speedily deleting this article is inappropriate. Please restore it a.s.a.p. And if you think that it should be deleted, you should AfD it instead. -- RekishiEJ (talk) 07:13, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

A new user right for New Page Patrollers

Hi RHaworth. A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Microfinance

Hi. I was creating the Association of Microfinance Institutions of Uganda page and within a few a hours it was deleted indicating article G11. Unambiguous advertising or exclusively promotional! You may realise that other similar networks already have such pages on wikipedia so it cant be tagged exclusively promotional. You may point to the issue of references but as you know how pages are created, references are easily input after the page is created. Atleast for a newbie like me but the page was deleted within a few hours after being created. I was actually still working on the summary information! I still believe the content is worth encyclopedic content and I would appreciate if you could restore our page and kindly advise how it can be rewritten to change the notion of being exclusively promotional. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ntalaka (talkcontribs) 07:27, 16 November 2016 (UTC)

Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure

This is regarding your Oct 2016 deletion of the Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure page.

Joseph Sutton

I would argue that Joseph Sutton is a significant San Francisco literary person. Joseph Sutton’s work represents a broad range of subjects, in both non-fiction and fiction formats, including the immigrant experience, the art of writing, the contemporary family and the all American pastime of baseball. His authorship of 13 books starting in 1991 shows a long lasting contribution to the field, to he will continue to enhance. This entry for Joseph Sutton into Wikipedia is important for people looking for contemporary writing on topics of importance and interest to Americans. Looking forward to hearing back from you. — Justinteam99 (talk) 22:54, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Deletion of the article Dilip Sankarreddy

Hi, I notice that the article Dilip Sankarreddy has been deleted.

The Challenge Series is a current drive on English Wikipedia to encourage article improvements and creations globally through a series of 50,000/10,000/1000 Challenges for different regions, countries and topics. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are invited to participate.

Re your November 10 deletion of Talk:Shillary could you please give me access to the text I left there? I had a request that if you were not going to discuss it there that it be moved to either RFD or to Talk:Hillary Clinton. I did that out of the courtesy of not cluttering your talk page, but the courtesy of keeping the message intact was not reciprocated, so that is the step I take now.

This was regarding your October 23 deletion of the term as "implausible" which I contradicted with new sources. I put work into cite webbing them and would like to avoid having to repeat that. — Ranze (talk) 18:02, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

Hi Roger -- back in October you deleted a page for a dating website called Todd and Clare. The same guy, using the same playbook, has stood up an article for another company called Yamie Chess. It was nominated for deletion today. I am wondering if it passes the smell test from your perspective? Regards, pm. 99.242.25.5 (talk) 02:46, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Retracted. I want to avoid any appearance of WP:CANVAS. Previously I was unaware that was a thing. Sorry to trouble you. ~pm 99.242.25.5 (talk) 00:34, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

Deletion Abstraction Games

Dear Sir, I wish to inquire why you've deleted my entry of Abstraction Games. It is an existing company and even has links to it from other pages like from this one: Potpourrii . I request that you reconsider this decision. Thanks in advance, Blazy008 -- Blazy008 (talk) 09:57, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Puntoticket article deleted

Hi Roger, my name is Al. You recently deleted the article about Puntoticket. I was trying to update it, with more information, links, articles, etc to prove that . I understand that the company may not be perceived as important outside of Latin America, but is gaining visibility at international level and is selling tickets for all the big events in Chile. I'm ready to provide more notability confirmations and to change the language, if you perceive it as promotional. Can you please explain me how can I improve more the content, so the article be approved? Thank you in advance for your helm - Aldoaller (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:44, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

User SOCK suspected, but no SPI Case?

Hey RHaworth! I noticed you tagged B.Bhargava Teja as potentially being a Sockpuppet of Bhargava Krishna , but there was no block and no case took to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Bhargava Krishna. I dunno, were you leaving it there for someone else to take a look at? Also, I'm pondering putting a PROD on Sampoorna Premayanam (B.Bhargava is the article's primary editor from what I see) but wonder if it falls under A7 or (quite possibly, judging by the grammar) G11. Any suggestions? MM (WhatIDo WHATIDO?) (Now THIS... I did.) 00:42, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

There may in fact be enough to tie both of them together, considering the newer account started in 2015 immediately with the same subjects, and the similar name at that too. As for your last sentence, that film is in fact acceptable it seems, and is certainly not A7 or G11. SwisterTwister talk 05:15, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

It is @SwisterTwister: ? Oh okay. The sources just didnt seem to be from verified sources and a Google search didn't seem to bring anything too promising. Then again I never finished Sources at Adoption School. *shrug*. Thanks for putting me right. Good luck if you're opening an SPI. MM (WhatIDo WHATIDO?) (Now THIS... I did.) 07:41, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

  • My feeling was to allow B.Bhargava Teja to continue to operate since they seem to have abandoned the sins of Bhargava Krishna and also their own sin of uploading movie posters and claiming them to be publick domain. But I will leave others to act as they see fit. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:26, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

Hi RHaworth, I have joined Wikipedia recently and wanted to understand from you whether the articles in the Student organisations section of this page link below should be deleted under A7: Article about a company, corporation or organization, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject). Student organisations in IIT Kharagpur — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lyoko x (talkcontribs) 05:46, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

  • You need to learn how to create a wikilink to a section. I suspect your real question is: "why was KRSSG deleted when two other articles linked to from that section are perfectly firm?" The best advice I can give you is to search this page for where I have used the word "kindly". But you could also follow the advice at the top of the section to which you link and ask at talk:Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur whether your group is notable enough. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:26, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

UTC-05:32:11 article

Why was my article on UTC-05:32:11 deleted for being a "hoax" It is not a hoax. Go to this webpage and select 1800-1849. There are other previously unknown time zones used in the 19th century according to that website, and I intended to make articles for them all. I don't see why we can't have articles for those time zones. Is it because they subtract seconds? We have an article for UTC-00:25:21NASAPeepo (talk) 03:00, 25 November 2016 (UTC)

  • When you write about an article, create a link to it. One argument is that Dublin Mean Time applied to the whole of Ireland while UTC-05:32:11 applied just to Detroit. I have restored it but I recommend strongly that before you create any more similar articles, raise the matter on a suitable talk page and get agreement. Personally I would like to see most of these [[UTC±…]] titles converted to redirects. "UTC-05:32:11" or "UTC-00:25:21" are utterly implausible search terms. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:49, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
    • I will definitely be creating articles for UTC-15:56 and UTC+14:00:24, formerly used in Manila and Anchorage, respectively. Since those subtracted and added the most to UTC as far as I know. Also, I only know for sure it was used in Detroit. As that is the only city in the whole Midwest that has time zone info before 1970 on that website. NASAPeepo (talk) 18:24, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
RHaworth, you should delete all these alleged time zone articles that were merely local solar mean times before time zones were established in the 1880s, including the Manila, Anchorage, and any local cities.

Can you semi-protect the page to persistent genre warring. 115.164.219.28 (talk) 11:31, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Unsalt request

Hi there, a year ago you salted Luke Ryan. A person by that name has just been drafted in the 2016 AFL draft. Whilst most newly drafted players aren't notable enough for an article, I like to redirect the new players to a list like List of Fremantle Football Club players#Listed players yet to play an AFL game for Fremantle. So, can you please unsalt? Thanks, The-Pope (talk) 15:31, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Deletion of File:Poly.pov

Hello,

This was a POV-Ray source file used to generate several standardized polyhedron images for Wikipedia. It should not have been deleted. Can it be restored or at the very least moved to some appropriate location? — LucasVB | Talk 15:48, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

Request to restore UkrGasVydobuvannya

Hi there,

I saw you deleted an article I have created. It was not advertising, it was an informational page about the company - a state owned gas producer in Ukraine. Here is a link: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/UkrGasVydobuvannya

Could you explain which information looked like advertisement to you? Could you please restore it / suggest edits.
