Your query on the Helpdesk
[edit]I have responded to your query on the help desk. Please also note that your article TunaHAKI Foundation is currently the subject of an Articles For Deletion process, citing the lack of notability of the Foundation. Please visit the article to see instructions as to how to participate in the process. Cheers. — Estarriol talk 11:02, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
TunaHAKI Foundation
[edit]A tag has been placed on TunaHAKI Foundation, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article is a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as articles for deletion. If you can indicate how TunaHAKI Foundation is different from the previously posted material, or if you can indicate why this article should not be deleted, I advise you to place the template {{hangon}} underneath the other template on the article, and also put a note on Talk:TunaHAKI Foundation saying why this article should stay. An admin should check for such edits before deleting the article. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Please read our criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 4 under General criteria. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. We welcome your help in trying to improve Wikipedia, and we ask you to follow these instructions. Dismas|(talk) 11:36, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
- The article has been deleted twice in the past. First on 17 June, 2006 and secondly on 9 March, 2007. You just now recreated the article even though it has already been deleted twice in the past. The first time by WP:AFD, the results of which can be found here and the second time by WP:CSD due to the fact that it was a previously deleted and recreated entry. The third incarnation of the article, which you just created and is still up to my knowledge, states on the talk page that there is some merit to the organization but doesn't say what that merit is. Furthermore, the article is blank except for the {{hangon}} template.
- Additionally, when you post things to user's talk pages, it is considered polite to sign your posts by placing four tildes at the end like so: ~~~~ This way, people know who has made the comment and can then click on the user's name to go to that user's talk page if so desired, instead of having to go to the page history to find out who is writing to them.
- Finally, the standard way to re-introduce a previously deleted article is through deletion review and not by simply recreating the article. Although, since you have already recreated the article (with the {{hangon}} template) then I guess that becomes a moot point and you should write the article with an aim of establishing the notability of the organization.
