Huntercoin and Datacoin
Please restore User:RenegadeMinds/Huntercoin and User:0x0F/Datacoin. G4 does not apply to pages "moved to [the] user space or converted to a draft for explicit improvement (but not simply to circumvent Wikipedia's deletion policy)." The latter part is vague but I do not believe it is applicable in this or the vast majority of cases. I declined about 20 unquestionably inappropriate speedy deletion requests by the same user that made those two, which is what put them on my radar. Best regards, — Godsy (TALKCONT) 19:19, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
- Actioned. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:06, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
RHaworth, I see you did restore User:RenegadeMinds/Huntercoin and User:0x0F/Datacoin, but immediately redeleted them as U5, incorrect use as web host. They do not seem that to me; they are reasonable userspace drafts, and whether they will ever make an acceptable article has to be seen by consensus. Unless you object, I will restore them. DGG ( talk ) 15:10, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
- There is no need to use a {{U}} template to me on this page! Restore them if you must. If you do, would you have any objections to my applying AfC tags to them? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:33, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
Why was the page I created deleted
Why was the page I created deleted. It was not advertising. It was factual with plenty of references and cited works. This article came from an objective view and included another wiki page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by V4ldhammond (talk • contribs) 11:51, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is not an election platform. Please wait. If this woman becomes notable someone with no CoI will write about her here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:20, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
Retrieve deleted article
Hi RHaworth, Hope all is well with you. You deleted this article Usama Tolba but the article about a person achieves noticeable. He is an Egyptian actor and has works in an Egyptian series. You can retrieve the article again and add these sources . Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by HaithamSelim (talk • contribs) 20:01, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- "You can retrieve the article again and add these sources"! Do your own editing! References to English language sources would help. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:20, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
Can you please userfy the whole history of that article plus the talk page? I am not sure what condition it is in, but it is ranked top 50 most popular websites so it does appear to be notable. — Valoem talk contrib 01:30, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Refund
Please un-delete Template:For index and move it to User:SMcCandlish/Template:For index. You deleted this as "G2: test page", but it was not a test page. It may have been incomplete; I don't remember and will need to go over it, and fix it up if it wasn't working properly. This was a template recommended by Wikipedia:Indexes, so presumably it needs repair, not deletion. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 16:24, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
- @SMcCandlish: Contents were a four-sentence autobiography. It wasn't a G2 except in the sense of "How long will it take this obviously-inappropriate material to get speedy-deleted?", but it was certainly an A7. — Cryptic 16:34, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
Hmm, that's odd. Maybe a mis-paste? I'll have to go digging back in old stuff to see what was actually supposed to be in it; it was not supposed to be content but actual template code. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 22:12, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
- But it was by Lord Krishna! Text emailed. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:33, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
- SMC, in a post on this page you say that you never did create {{For index}}, though you had meant to. It does appear you made a large update to {{For outline}} back in June of 2016. The actual content of {{For index}} that was just deleted was an attempt at a biographical article started in Jan 2018. There were no prior versions, and there are no incoming links to Template:For index from anywhere in Wikipedia space other than this reference which I don't understand. You had mentioned {{For index}} in WP:Indexes but recently someone removed it. Hope this helps. EdJohnston (talk) 22:40, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
I saw yesterday that this was edited by a sockpuppet, and started to delete it per G5, but then I looked at the history. It didn't qualify for G5, and it certainly doesn't qualify for G7. Please restore it. Thanks —DoRD (talk) 13:15, 23 May 2018 (UTC)
Never mind, I've done it myself. —DoRD (talk) 10:45, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
Mural Lingo Draft
Hi, Thank you for reviewing my draft previously. I would like to seek some advice from you as it has come to my attention that my page Draft:Mural Lingo has been removed under Section G11. We have created the page based on our close reference to other pages belonging to similar arts organisations such as The Substation and Singapore Art Museum. We are still very new to Wikipedia and hence would like to ask which are the areas that I can work on to improve the page and make it suitable for release. Thank you and I appreciate your assistance!

Ocean Nuclear
Hi Roger, I've been working on a draft for Ocean Nuclear - a Chinese financing company for nuclear energy. Funny to spot you're in Croydon – I'm based in Crystal Palace, not too far from you. Please could I ask some advice - I've been editing the draft in line with feedback, and have switched things so the company comes across as notable and the copy does not read as promotional. Here's the latest draft. I'd be grateful to hear any advice you have. I think they are notable, and have found a number of independent sources, such as China Daily and World Nuclear Association, to verify that, but there isn't a lot of coverage in English, so including more links, except in translation, is a bit hard. Grateful to hear any advice you can share on this latest draft. All the best, Emily hare (talk) 08:18, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
- I cannot decide whether you have a CoI or not. If you do, you must declare it. So which of your links are to significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources? If you cannot find such in English, then I suggest: give up for the time being. Feel free to try again but before you do take time to learn some wiki basics: formatting of section headings; don't clutter article bodies with external links; don't clutter user talk pages with article material. Indeed learn wikilinks! What on earth is the link currently on your user page? The best I can offer is that I will try and ensure that it gets the usual six month lifespan for draft articles: leave a note here if it gets a speedy tag again. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:34, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
Kiersten White's new page
Hi, I'm confused about why you deleted the page I created. For one, how do I restore it to the proper place without losing all the info? Also, where should it have been placed, instead of Wikipedia:Kiersten White? Instead of a total deletion, wouldn't a nudge in the right direction suffice? — JameswoodSK (talk) 12:42, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
- Please learn about wikilinks and in particular the difference between Wikipedia:Kiersten White (wrong) and Kiersten White (correct). I did hesitate before doing the original deletion of this one. I moved it back to draftspace because I am dubious about her notability. Please allow the article to be reviewed by an independent reviewer. If it gets accepted, it will require an admin to move it to mainspace - contact me if necessary. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:39, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
MfD closures
Greetings! I appreciate that you have begun closing MfD nominations for pages you delete. When you do that, however, please place {{subst:mfd top}}
above the section header on the page; otherwise the section does not properly collapse at MfD. Thanks! — Compassionate727 (T·C) 15:21, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
- The other option is to use XFDcloser, which does all of the grunt work and means you don't have to remember where everything goes! — Primefac (talk) 18:16, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks Primefac, I shall try it. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:05, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
Request for undeletion of sorts
Hi, is there any way you could have a look at Swat Kohistan? I'm willing to examine it for anything worth merging into Swat District, so unless this is either utter gibberish or an exact copy of the main article, I'd appreciate it if you could restore it (possibly in draft space). Thanks! – Uanfala (talk) 22:18, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
- The entire content of the page was:
Category: Swat Kohistan
without even [[]] and it was created by RichardBond (talk · contribs). It seems strange that Category:Swat Kohistan exists as a seemingly valid category without a corresponding article. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:05, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
Alrigh, thanks. The article corresponding to the category is Swat District, I guess: I imagine the administrative unit to largely coincide with the geographic and cultural area. – Uanfala (talk) 21:37, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
Ah, no: Swat Kohistan is apparently only the upper half of the district. – Uanfala (talk) 08:47, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
Question
The Veterans Against Terrorism page directs to a recently made (and currently disputed) addition to the UKIP page. It looks to me like promotion of something that as yet as little references in support. I assume you think speedy delete was not appropriate - but if not that then what? ----- Snowded TALK 07:15, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- WP:RFD. — 78.28.45.127 (talk) 09:58, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) What the IP said. I would personally recommend you wait a couple of days to make sure it doesn't get re-incorporated before taking it there. It's up to you though, it probably doesn't matter. — Compassionate727 (T·C) 16:40, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- I am reluctant to talk to IP addresses at the best of times but an IP address incapable of composing a sentence can be ignored.
- Snowded, wait at least a week after the dispute between you and the Vintage Feminist has resolved. If you have won, re-apply the speedy tag and deletion will be uncontroversial. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:05, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks RHaworth, Veterans Against Terrorism is now an article in its own right since the re-direct no longer makes sense due to this diff made 2 mins prior to the OP of this thread. -- The Vintage Feminist (talk) 23:02, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
I wasn't aware that one 'won' or 'lost' in the context of removing unreferenced material from wikipedia. Setting up a page to link to that is dubious at best and letting is stand for a couple of weeks dubious. A reason for decline rather than just deleting would have helped. However article has been created, using the groups own web site and material as source. So when I have time I'll have to go through that if some other editor hasn't picked it up. Thanks for responding ----- Snowded TALK 06:58, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
Harshad's Draft
Hello RHaworth, could you please tell me the exact reason for the deletion of my recent draft:Sri Sri Sri Guru Viswa Sphoorthi [has never existed]. Can I make any suggested changes and reinstate the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harsh 107 (talk • contribs) 23:56, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Deletion of Twiflex Talk page
Hello, it seems you have deleted Draft talk:Twiflex per (G8: Talk page of a deleted or non-existent page). Was this due to the fact I created the Draft page in the Draft Talk page sections as opposed to the Draft page? It says to contact you before creating the page again so if you could shed some more light on the matter, I'd appreciate it. Thank you for your time, Kind regards. Jordan.williams (talk) 08:29, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
- I hope that any clients for whom you are doing paid editing will insist on a "no publish - no fee" contract. Before you do any more paid work, actually take some time to learn how to edit Wikipedia: basics like section headings, wikilinks (your draft did not contain a single one!), de-duplicating references, etc. It was far too long and too much like the company's own website. Look at articles for similar companies - Altra Industrial Motion is a good example! Text reluctantly emailed. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:25, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
About MYREN
Hi, I would like to create a page about MYREN (the Malaysian Research and Education Network) and I noticed the page was deleted by you on 30 May 2014. Can I have the original text of this page or can I create this wiki again? Thanks. +可愛+天使 (talk) 16:15, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

Allen Small article deleted
Hi RHaworth, I am just wondering why you flagged draft:Allen Small the article as advertising? He is the leader of a large political party in Ontario -- and we are currently in an election. There are several pages related to the election with vote tallies, polling etc that have an empty to link to his page. Would you be able to clarify for me why this falls under advertising? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brendanbenting (talk • contribs) 00:15, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
@Compassionate727: Thank-you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brendanbenting (talk • contribs)
- @Brendanbenting: I did you a favor and moved this to the bottom of the page, where new conversations ago. RHaworth doesn't respond to requests that aren't made in the correct place. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 00:21, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
- I did not flag it as advertising: I deleted it. It looked like what it was: electioneering. But if you must, try again with a non-copyvio version that establishes the guy's notability. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:11, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Restoring page
Hi, I wrote the page Draft:Kevin Scott (Computer Scientist) that you recently deleted, and would like to work on it until it becomes acceptable. Could you please temporarily restore it into my user space, or email it to me? It had substantial content beyond https://news.microsoft.com/exec/kevin-scott/ that was added to it, and I would like to keep that content while I rewrite the duplicate content.

deletion of Rain (network operator)
Please help me to understand why you deleted this page after I responded to the initial speedy deletion note and added sufficient diverse references. I am a researcher in telecommunications in Africa and find wikipedia articles on African network operators to be useful reference points. I didn't think that adding a new one would be such a mission. — Stevesong (talk) 11:18, 31 May 2018 (UTC)

Portal:Bandai Namco
I was just wondering why the portal Bandai Namco was deleted, as it seemed (by the subpages) that is was a working portal. Was it supposed to be deleted, or could you give me some insight into why it might have been deleted? Thanks Wpgbrown (talk) 09:13, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for undeleting the portal! Wpgbrown (talk) 10:35, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
- WPG, you may blame that on Auric (talk · contribs) who applied a speedy tag to Portal:Bandai Namco/Related portals and failed to bracket it with <noinclude></noinclude>. That caused the portal page to pop up in CAT:CSD by transclusion. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:14, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

Talk:Bret Weinstein
Hi there,
You deleted the said talk page. I assume you have not read the content of it. There is a redirect entry for his former college. And the discussion on the talk page is about whether the entry should be a stand alone one. As such, a technically reasoned deletion is incorrect IMHO. Can you please recover it? Those things lay dormant I know. But situations change and people might also get the time to engage at some point to expand etc. Thanks, Jazi Zilber (talk) 16:30, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
- YechezkelZilber, the page was deleted so that the draft version could be moved into its place. Primefac (talk) 16:55, 1 June 2018 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
Couldn't you have moved the talk page to the talk of the draft page rather than deleting? I recall it was a lively talk page. — Jazi Zilber (talk) 09:03, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

- In fact both speedy tags were "wrong". There was no indication that the author of Draft:Blogger wanted it deleted but I was happy to delete it as empty and almost six months stale. And there was a fortnight to go before Draft:Lee Sae-rom became stale. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:51, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
Right, right. I didn't think to check. I think the deletions were still good, per IAR. But do you think Draft:E-TeleQuote Insurance is worth anything? Thanks, Jjjjjjdddddd (talk) 15:50, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

- Please start a new section if you start a new topic. I see no comment as to why you approved it. Edwardx (talk · contribs) applied the speedy tag.

Hi, I am pretty sure that I was the one that tagged Draft:Old Kickapoo with a CSD housekeeping tag after I merged the content to Bleeding Kansas. Instead, I should have moved it to article space and changed it to a redirect... and then added merge tags. Sorry about that... I wasn't thinking of the right procedure because it was in draft space. I think you may have been the one that deleted it. Is it possible to bring it back so that I can make those fixes and preserve the history, per the discussion at User_talk:FloridaArmy#Merl_R._Eppse. Or, should I file a request for an undelete? Thanks so much!!! – CaroleHenson (talk) 14:05, 5 June 2018 (UTC)

Deletion
Dear RHaworth. Why do you keep deleting my questions as to why Hjernerystelsesforeningen is deleted - and even doing it without writing a notification of you doing it on my talkpage, or without guiding me in the right direction, so I can get an answer to my question? Especially the last part, is somewhat bad judgement from your part. Looking forward to your answers. Kind regards Tøndemageren (talk) 06:46, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
- Your second and third edits of the talk page were deleted for the simple reason that they were in the wrong place - we do allow talk pages of deleted articles. If you had asked your question here, you would have received a reply. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:11, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
- I see what you did there - but you still didn't answer why you did not notify me of potential errors (which I would think would be quintessential to do), and how to get the answer I was looking for. I did, however, manage to get it somewhere else. I do think, that your behaviour in this maner, has been far from what you would expect from an admin, as you have provided anything useful for the user - other than keep pointing out, that the user has made a mistake initially, and furthermore actually blaming the user for not contacting you afterwards. You saw the question, before deleting it - you could have answered the user. In the future - try helping the users as your first priority - you are an administrator, and have been granted more responsibility. Please act up to it. Kind regards Tøndemageren (talk) 06:55, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
- It has been restored. Why bother complaining to me? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:15, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
- Again, not at all reacting to what I wrote. If you were looking at when it was restored, you would see, that it was after my post here. Despite that, I will still remind you to act up to the extra responsibility you've got. So far, you have only blamed me - instead of looking at how you handled the situation. Do yourself a favour, and think about if you could have handled it better. Kind regards Tøndemageren (talk) 14:41, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Deleted page
Hi, could you restore my deleted article Holy Cross Accordion Band Atticall or restore it as a draft please or even email me the text. And explain why you removed it because it is not a promotional or an advertising article I just simply stated facts about the bands historical achievements if you could give me some advice on how to improve the article for the future it would be appreciated. Thanks for time and consideration. — Anonymous860 (talk) 17:30, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
- First learn Wikipedia standards like wikilinks and section headings. Then, if you really must, try again via AfC and leave it in draft: space - do not move it yourself. Text emailed. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:11, 6 June 2018 (UTC)
Motimatic Deletion
Hi! I got an email about the speedy deletion of the Motimatic page at midnight right as I was going to sleep. It said that I would be able to contest the deletion, but the article was already gone by the time I sat down to fix it at 6am. I disagree with the recommendation to delete it and feel strongly that I should have been given the opportunity to fix it. I am new to Wikipedia and that was one of my first articles. I am confident I could have fixed it. Would you mind restoring it so I can work on it? Best, SJTatsu (talk) 01:36, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

Sigma Theta Pi
Since you are the Salting administrator for Sigma Theta Pi, I request that it be unsalted and change to a redirect to Sigma Thêta Pi (note the accent on the e in theta, which is preferred in French). The contents of the redirect should be, I believe (I'd make it a Draft page if it wasn't so small)
#REDIRECT [[Sigma Thêta Pi]]
{{Rcat shell|{{R to diacritics}}}}

your assistance please...
You closed Unnamed fireboat, North Kingstown, RI on May 15th, one day after I started it. The entry you left in the deletion log said A7. I am requesting userification. I have a wikistalker, who has resorted to sockpuppetry, in order to evade their indefinite block. So emailing me the last content won't work, as I can't provide SPI a link to the edit where they applied the A7 tag, if you merely email me the content. If I examine the userified version, and I have questions, do you want to discuss the A7 assertion? — Geo Swan (talk) 23:28, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

I requested userification. Instead you moved it to draft space. May I ask why? Geo Swan (talk) 11:14, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
- No strong feelings but getting rid of stale material from draft space is slightly easier than doing so from user space. But the Wikipedia motto is: be bold. If you prefer it in user space, move it yourself - I probably will never notice and if I do, I will take no action. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:54, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Uncertainty
Please help to restore a deleted page. Dear RHaworth, This is Antielude, the creator of the item ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems Part A: Civil Engineering; Part B: Mechanical Engineering. I have just noticed that you have deleted this item since it seems to violate the "G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion'. I feel sorry for any improper content in this item and I respect your decision. And I want to re-modify or recreate it to make it fully match the Wiki standards. So could you please kindly help me to retrieve all the content of the deleted item and send it to me so that I can modify/recreate new item based on it. I really appreciate your time and help. Many thanks. Antielude (talk) 07:05, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
- Learn wikilinks! That way I will see a link to the appropriate format depending on the device I am using. Please have the decency to wait until someone who a) can think of a less ponderous title and b) has no CoI and c) can make your screamingly non-notable journal appear notable, writes about it here. The best it deserves is to be created as a redirect to ASCE Library. Please read this. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:54, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
Hi RHaworth, I feel sorry for any improper format in my previous comments and I have tried to change the link into a proper wikilink -- ASCE-ASME Journal of Risk and Uncertainty in Engineering Systems Part A: Civil Engineering; Part B: Mechanical Engineering. I also checked that a proper email address has been set in "my preference" section of my page and the email address is also set public for you. Could you please kindly send me the copy of the content in the item so that I can recreate a new, conform-to-wiki-criteria item based on it. I really appreciate your time and help and please feel free to reply me. Many thanks. Antielude (talk) 02:55, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- I am glad to see that you have made a bit of progress towards understanding wikilinks. You did this and similar edits several times and I reverted each one. For some cack-handed reason, in each case you deleted the preceding message re ex-officio so I deemed your edit vandalism. "The email address is also set public" - no! - the whole point of the Wikipedia email system is that you can receive emails without making your address publick. I still cannot email you - did you tick "allow other users to email me"? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:59, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
Hi RHaworth, Thanks for your reminding. I have changed to another email address and confirmed it already. Also I have ticked the "allow other users to email me". Please kindly send it to the new address. Many thanks. Antielude (talk) 16:26, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

Juan Lerma Gómez
Hi RHaworth, Thank you for taking the time to review this application (Juan Lerma Gómez). I haven't added citations yet because it was previously deleted and it was much work to remake it. Could you restore my deleted article Juan Lerma Gómez or restore it as a draft please or even email me the text? I got to do it less promotional and now I have lost the text, this is a difficult process for novel people. Thank you, LNM83 —Preceding undated comment added 10:52, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Ayah AR
Hi RHaworth, May I know why was my article for almentor.net deleted? It is an article about a company established recently. what is promotional about it ? if possible please highlight and guide me what to edit. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ayah AR (talk • contribs) 12:04, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Interesting history:
- 2016-04-25 you created Alrashdan (talk · contribs) but did nothing with the account
- 2018-05-03 you created Almentornet (talk · contribs) and again did nothing with the account
- 2018-06-02 you created Almentor (talk · contribs) and promptly posted your spam to its user page. It was deleted within a couple of hours and the account was blocked but, unlike some users, you did keep a copy of your text.
- 2018-06-05 user Almentor was renamed Ayah alrashdan (talk · contribs) but not unblocked
- 2018-06-11 you created Ayah AR (talk · contribs) and promptly created draft:Almentor.net using the text you had saved, leaving in place the speedy tag from its previous posting. That state survived four hours before I deleted it.
- Needless to say, I have blocked you. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:51, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
Deletion of Schöma
Hello Roger,
I "thank" you for deleting Schöma as a redirect to Draft:Schöma. By doing, that you left some 15 articles or so with useless red links. Please use "what links here" to see which they are. At 80, going on 81, I'm also a "grumpy old man".
Peter Horn User talk 14:15, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
- Peter Horn, just as a general note, Twinkle has the option to "unlink" all backlinks (i.e. you could do it yourself in just a few clicks), but redlinks don't have to be deleted. I'm kind of neutral on the issue itself, so I'll leave it to you or RHaworth to take whatever action you feel is necessary. Primefac (talk) 14:32, 11 June 2018 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
- Quite simply redirects out of mainspace are not allowed so Schöma had to be deleted. And, indeed, it is much better that way because blue links in 15 articles would hide the fact that this, obviously a wanted article, has not yet beeen created properly. So the red links definitely should stay.
- Now I wonder who posted at the top of the article: this article may be expanded with text translated from the corresponding article in German. Follow that advice! You don't need to know German: Google will provide a perfectly comprehensible text and I am sure you are capable of re-casting it in idiomatick English. But you will also need to provide independent evidence of notability - the Germans are clearly less fussy about that aspeckt. The German article has four more more pics which are on Commons so you can use them here. It makes a change for me to be able to encourage an editor! Most of the time I am discouraging spammers. (I often ride the Bombardier trams in Croydon - and I'm the sort of nerd who knows who builds them.) — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:51, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
I put that note some time back. Schöma is no more or no less notable than say Henschel & Son or Ruston (engine builder) etc. Peter Horn User talk 19:30, 11 June 2018 (UTC)
Add Hunslet Engine Company to that. Peter Horn User talk 20:10, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

Deletion of Wikipedia Draft Page -
Hey Roger, Thank you for taking the time to view and edit the page Draft:Pranav Ansal. The content that was taken from the company website belongs to the client itself. The article is about the director of the company, along with a little detail on the company as well. I own the rights to the website where the content was summarised (copied - as you said) from, as the company/person mentioned in the article is currently working with my agency under a corporate contract.
Kindly assist with how I can ensure that my article doesn't get deleted from Wikipedia. Cheers, comment added by Sidnandy (talk • contribs) 11:44, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
- The best way to ensure that your article doesn't get deleted is simply to wait until someone with no CoI thinks the company is notable and writes about it here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:59, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
Recovering CleanMyMac page
Hi. My name is Oksana Demchenko. I represent MacPaw software development company. We see in log file that you deleted wikipedia page about our main product, CleanMyMac, yesterday, for the reason that it was too promotional. I'd like to ask - what can we do to recover the page? We are already working on a new text for it, which would just describe the basic software functionality and would not look commercial at all.
