- @Tokyogirl79: @Hasteur: sorry, did not intend to wheel-war about this. I declined a speedy last night because I misread 28 Sep 13, date of the last substantial edit, as 28 Sep 14 and told EoRdE6, the nominator, that it was premature. S/he pointed out my mistake this morning and I deleted it, not knowing that it had been deleted and restored in the meantime. I will of course restore it on request, or will not complain if you do, but I think that would be a waste of time as IMO it has zero chance of being an article - subject is a fan-group with 30 members. JohnCD (talk) 14:18, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- JohnCD IIRC, This was a eSports clan/team much the same way that Team Liquid is (which is why I commented on the draft to show a similar article) to hopefully spark the user's interest) not a fan-group. I would have preferred that you not have re-deleted the page again as my edit was defenitely invalidating G13 (as a real user had edited) and given the advocate (or one of the volunteers at AFC or a draft hunter) time to improve, but since I'm already being harassed to oblivion by Eo, I'm not going to make any more stink about it. Hasteur (talk) 15:55, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Well, Done then for form's sake, no harm giving it another six months, but I don't think it has a snowball's chance of going anywhere - dropped in by a member fifteen months ago and not touched since, group had 30 members then and as far as I can see is now defunct.

Ata Online
I wrote an article about Ata Online. It is an investment company in Turkey. In Wikipedia, there are a lot of articles about companies. So that, I did not understand why my page was deleted. As a reason of deletion, kibele said that user name was inappropriate. I would like to change my user name then. But I do not know hoow to change my username. I am ready to change my article too. Can you please let me know where there was wrong sentences or plagiarism. Please let me know. Also I was wrting this aryicle for the company where I work so I have the rights of writing about it. -Ata Online Menkul Kıymetler A.Ş. (talk) 14:04, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Ata Online Menkul Kıymetler A.Ş.: Not done. This request is your only edit to the English Wikipedia, and I cannot find any deleted article about Ata Online. If the article was in this English Wikipedia, please give its exact title and the username of the account that created it.
- But I think probably your article was deleted on the Turkish Wikipedia, which is a separate organization, and you will have to ask about it there. Although you have been blocked there, you should still be able to edit your user talk page there. More advice on your user talk page here soon. JohnCD (talk) 17:05, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

File:Цвиркун.JPG
An image (allegedly 5375947 bytes) was transferred to commons (56 KB) and deleted as {{now commons}} (F8). If the original size is correct something went seriously wrong. In that case please restore a local copy for a new attempt. -Be..anyone (talk) 09:52, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Not done. from the file history, something evidently went wrong with the first transfer to Commons on 28 Oct 2012, but the file was then successfully transferred on 28 Aug 13, size 56 kb, and is still on Commons - click the blue-link above. It was nominated at Commons:COM:Deletion requests/File:Цвиркун.JPG, but the result yesterday was keep. JohnCD (talk) 13:50, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- I participated in the DR on commons, that's no problem. I want the original big file on commons, if it still exists here (assuming that the bug wasn't only an erroneous number 5375947.) As soon as that original file is on commons it would be of course again deleted here as "F8". –Be..anyone (talk) 16:12, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- I've looked at the deleted file - the image is identical with the current one, perhaps a slightly higher-contrast version, but the same size, 200 × 267. The size is indeed shown as 5,375,947 bytes, so there must be something very peculiar about it - that's more than 100 bytes per pixel.

- Looking further, the Commons file history page shows that on 28 Aug 203 McZusatz uploaded the new version and then "changed visibility of a revision on page File:Цвиркун.JPG: content hidden (Absurd overhead)", implying that it's still there on Commons but hidden. I think you should ask McZusatz before restoring it. JohnCD (talk) 17:59, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Jup, I tried to make it clear by uploading the reduced size version again and giving the reason in the summary field. --McZusatz (talk) 20:56, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Be..anyone: there was something very peculiar about the file. Either the image generation script went awry and stored a bunch of unnecessary information at the end, or the uploader had something more nefarious in mind. I cannot figure out which of the two by basic inspection of the file, but there is no reason to have the original around. Also, you probably want to make your undeletion requests for a Commons image at c:COM:UNDEL. Magog the Ogre (t • c) 22:58, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Jup, I tried to make it clear by uploading the reduced size version again and giving the reason in the summary field. --McZusatz (talk) 20:56, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Okay, so something big existed, was seriously broken, and only an embedded {{nowcommons}} thumbnail was usable. On the day when I stumbled over this oddity I copied a big Paco Peña in 1984.jpg here over a tiny thumbnail on commons (help desk request), and wondered if something with the transfers is systematically wrong. Thanks for checking. –Be..anyone (talk) 05:58, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

michael j brown linebacker
My apologies and I did not know that there was a time limit on references and nor do I know how to site an article. I just figured that someone would find something or site the article. I've never used Wikipedia before and this is my first article. The reason that I found it worthy of Wikipedia is because we share the same name. And furthermore I did find a website quoting him. http://thebettermentofmyself.webs.com/apps/blog/entries/show/24048511-1987-nfl-draft -Michaelbrown14455 (talk) 02:59, 9 January 2015 (UTC)

- @Michaelbrown14455: Done - I have restored Michael J. Brown (linebacker) and reset the clock. The Wikipedia:Verifiability policy is that "any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source", and for biographies of living persons that is so important that they are deleted after seven days if unsourced. Unfortunately the source you have found is not good enough, because it is a blog (not reliable because not editorial control) and written by the subject himself. If he is notable, you should be able to find press reports. Wikipedia:WikiProject American football is a group of users interested in this subject; if you ask on their talk page, you may be able to get advice on where to look for sources.

Didn't have time to edit it further - now have help to complete the task -Stwins (talk) 09:58, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
- Done @Stwins:, I do have to give a slight word of caution. The article is kind of written in such a manner that it reads like it was pulled from an official website or summary about the church. It has some peacock sentences and words like "One of its most striking features is the obelisk cross bearing the inscription." I'd also re-write the sentence "The Bell, possibly the work of Mears & Stainbank, is rung every Sunday to call the faithful to mass.", as it also sounds a little promotional-ish in its tone. Plus I do have to warn you that your username "StWin" should be changed in order to reflect more on you as a person, as it gives off the impression that you are editing on behalf of this specific church. While you can edit with a conflict of interest, your username should reflect on you as an individual. Those are the two biggies- this still needs sourcing for notability but those others were the two that I wanted to mention. On a side note, is the church (or any part of it) registered as a historical landmark? That kind of gives automatic notability from what I can remember, so that'd be one of the first things I'd research and source. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 10:07, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
- I have a bigger word of caution - cutting-and-pasting from http://www.stwinefridesneston.org.uk/aspects_of_history.html (which has a copyright marking) is not allowed. I have deleted the page as a violation of copyright. If you want to write about the church, do so in your own words using histories as a starting point. See Wikipedia:Your_first_article#And_be_careful_about... Tokyogirl79, when something sounds like it was pulled from an official website, it probably was, and a quick check would have found the same source that I did. BencherliteTalk 10:22, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

- Not done The issue I first saw was that the page was pretty full of various weasel words and peacock type terms that would come across as promotional for Bates, enough to where you'd likely have to re-write substantial parts of the article to really make it fit the NPOV guidelines. A good example of something that would have to be re-written or just taken out completely would be sentences like "Bates is internationally recognized for his outstanding contributions and achievements as a polymer scientist." It also looks to be somewhat closely paraphrased at times from various sites like this one. If it was just one or the other I would have restored it because neither one was so bad that it would be something I'd decline on that basis alone, but together they pose enough of a problem that it'd just be better if you re-wrote it from scratch in your own words.

Shawn Oakman
unjustifiably deleted. Admin decided to take it into his/her own hands to decide who's notable or not. There were numerous sources provided in the article, that suggest an AFD would be the more logical move than to just flat out delete.-Yankees10 01:18, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
- As the deleting admin, let me note that Yankees has repeatedly resisted my explanation and reminder that this article didn't have any secondary sources; all he's done is insist that the guy passed WP:BIO, despite providing no evidence for such a statement, let alone evidence of the significance that would ward off an A7 speedy. Note that administrators have broad consensus to bypass deletion discussion, at their discretion, and immediately delete Wikipedia pages or media in a few situations, and this is one of those situations. Nyttend (talk) 01:24, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Yankees10: The page is ineligible for restoration by request because it was deleted in accordance with WP:CSD#A7. Because the deleting administrator has already stated the rationale for deleting the page, you may bypass the step required in Wikipedia:Deletion review to contact the deleting administrator, and open a case there. ~Amatulić (talk) 02:23, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Tarek Najm
1. I am here to request a restoration of Tarek Najm's page on Wikipedia. The page was deleted on November by the administrator : Secret. The reason was irrelevant references been added on this page. First of all, I add some departments Tarek Najm run in the Microsoft as references since these department pages include hyperlink to Tarke's page. I think it may good to also include these departments page's link in Tarek' page if audiences want to go back. 2. I made some changes for Tarek's profile since I found out he already left Microsoft in 2013. Therefore, I updated his current status and occupations in order to provide more accuracy information. Last, even the administrator believed I should not add these references or updated information in Tarek's page, he can contact me or simply remove the references or additional information. It's very surprising that the administrator quickly made a decision to delete the entire page which already exists in Wikipedia for 4-5 years. I left messages on Secret's talk page to ask for restoration of Tarek Najm's page until Secret's quit suddenly. Could you please help to review this case, reconsider the deletion decision? I wish you can approve this request to make Tarek Najm's page back again.
Thank you so much~ -Faylinesong (talk) 22:20, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- Not done The administrator did not "quickly" make a decision - it was the result of over three weeks' discussion at WP:Articles for deletion/Tarek Najm which decided that the references did not meet the WP:Notability requirement for "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject," see also WP:Notability (summary). Because it was deleted after a deletion discussion, it will not be undeleted here, but, since Secret has retired, you may apply directly at WP:Deletion review.
- Some advice, though: one of your edit summaries said "My boss asked me to edit his bio page", and you have already been warned on your talk page about WP:Conflict of interest. You must understand that Wikipedia is not a place like LinkedIn for people to post their CVs, or tell their subordinates to write about them: COI editing is strongly discouraged. If you make a request at Deletion Review, be careful to declare your interest. Also, Read WP:Bombardment and WP:AMOUNT. JohnCD (talk) 23:34, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Faylinesong: I believe have been communicating with you in OTRS. My advice to you was, after receiving no response from Secret, to take your case to Wikipedia:Deletion review, not post a restoration request here on this page. Your next step remains Wikipedia:Deletion review. To make your case, you must explain why you believe the outcome of the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tarek Najm was in error. ~Amatulić (talk) 15:29, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

When that context is not tends to any change, the resultant value will be intact, else - it is that the value can be said by a locus [or] by a Context Matrix."

MAMCM
This page had described the history and significance of the Mid-Atlantic Macromolecular Crystallography Meeting (MAMCM). This was the first such meeting in the United States (prompted by analogous meetings in Europe in the early days of protein crystallography), and it played a role in the development of protein crystallography, particularly in the eastern U.S. As an example of its broader significance (beyond Wikipedia in and of itself), the "History" link at http://www.mid-atlantic.org points to this (now-deleted) MAMCM Wikipedia page. -Cmura (talk) 17:33, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Cmura: The deleting administrator Kelapstick might be receptive to that argument, because you are making an assertion of significance, which should be sufficient to overcome deletion in accordance with WP:CSD#A7, although the article still may not survive a nomination at WP:AFD if it comes to that. Please make your case to the admin. Articles deleted by A7 are ineligible for restoration by request on this page. ~Amatulić (talk) 21:12, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
- I don't find the argument particularly compelling, nor the fact that the organization is using a Wikipedia article as the history section of their website (which is a bad idea for a number of reasons, this being the least of them). However if Cmura would like to discuss the matter further, I am happy to on my talk page.--kelapstick(bainuu) 21:32, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

The admin who deleted this page did not even specify a reason for doing so, and I would like to see the information that was there. If there was a valid reason for deletion then fine, but without the admin specifying a reason we cannot know what happened. This is my first time requesting undeletion, so apologies if I make any mistakes in this request. -Oogabooga007 (talk) 19:59, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Oogabooga007: The reason is there for anyone to see: "Expired PROD, concern was: No references, no claim of notability, fails WP:NSONGS and WP:GNG". But because articles deleted via PROD can be restored by request. I done so. If the article is not improved, it will likely be proposed for deletion at WP:AFD. If deleted then, it cannot be deleted by request on this page. ~Amatulić (talk) 21:05, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
Amatulić (talk) Not quite sure how I reply on here - wanted to say thank you, and also to clarify that the reason I did not see the admin's original reasons for deletion was a fault of mine - I had a web browser extension that hides comments and it doesn't work so well with Wikipedia. Since fixed, apologies for the trouble.-Oogabooga007 (talk) 21:30, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

Vierck%27s_law
Vierck's Law, a corollary to Moore's Law, was cited periodically on well-known blogs (e.g. Scott Hanselman) referencing Software Engineering as a discipline. As a member of the Windows NT team I (Benjamin Vierck) mentioned the law myself in some subsequent interviews. It occupies a tiny corner of Software Engineering, to be sure, but it does not deserve to be wiped from our shared culture altogether. As Machine Learning gains popularity 2015-2017 it may become relevant again in our conversation in that software that learns will violate the longstanding Law.
