TVPaint
It was deleted in January because of so-called "copyright infringement", which is untrue because TVPaint deserves a Wikipedia article for being a popular raster-based animation software. If someone wants to fix the article to avoid violations, then they need to rewrite the article based on sources, along with http://wiki.tvpaint.com/index.php?title=TVPaint and the other links here, instead of deleting it altogether. -187.113.203.102 (talk) 20:42, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
Not done - this Requests for Undeletion process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially, and does not apply to articles deleted after a deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted after a discussion took place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TVPaint, it cannot be undeleted through this process. However, if you believe that the outcome of the discussion did not reflect the consensus of the participants, or that significant new information has come to light since the article was deleted, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user Coffee (talk · contribs). After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. user talk:Coffee may be willing to turn it into a draft for you to improve. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 00:06, 16 October 2016 (UTC)
- I will also note that popularity is not WP:Notability, and a good chunk of those sources are from TVPaint's own website. I would also suggest the article be named Newtek Aura instead as that's what the usable sources that *are* there refer to it as. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 04:36, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

Serban_Ghenea
Serban Ghenea is a world-famous mixer. It looks like some person unaware of what a mixer actually does, in the music business, has deleted this page. It is a very high valued job and vital for making a song sound great, and very very few people can do that as good as Serban Ghenea. Being a mixer myself, it is strange to see that is is possible for someone to delete the page of the world-wide best professional in the business, and - according to lots of comments on the internet about this deletion, not being aware of what in fact a mixer does. To check out what he does and how the professional community reacted, try googling his name together with wikipeda and deletion, to see how the community reacted. -FrodeFrode (talk) 09:09, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

I'd like to have the previous versions of these files be restored, because these files are in the public domain as they are ineligible for copyright in the United States. XPanettaa (talk) 20:49, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
Not done these are not that simple. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:16, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Graeme Bartlett: Oh yeah, but I don't think that these are copyrightable in the United States as the the level of originality required for copyright protection is very high, but in the United Kingdom. See c:Commons:Threshold of originality#United States. These files are free contents in the United States but non-free or potentially non-free in its home country, the United Kingdom, because level of originality required for copyright protection in the United Kingdom is very low as these files would most likely be deleted there. See c:Commons:Threshold of originality#United Kingdom. Wikimedia Commons only accepts files that are public domain or freely licensed in both the country of origin and the United States. In order for Commons to host a file, it must be free in its home country and in the United States. Some countries, particularly other countries based on common law, have a lower threshold of originality than the United States. It seems that these logos are in graffiti styles. I have verified each of these 2 files and I'm afraid we disagree on the complexity of these logos. They are all free in the United States, but not in the United Kingdom. XPanettaa (talk) 13:21, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
- I'd like to dispute the notion that these files are PD in the US as well. The text isn't, but the imitation of a fly eye and the rounded shapes may cross the TOO. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:18, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Jo-Jo Eumerus: @Graeme Bartlett: What do you think of File:Audi AG logo.png? This one seems is simple and seems unlikely to cross the TOO. I think that the previous version should be restored, because this one is from Germany. See c:Commons:Threshold of originality#Germany for images that are not copyrighted in the country of origin. XPanettaa (talk) 19:02, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
- Maybe it's PD in Germany but I am not going to gamble on it being PD here as well. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:47, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
- This does not look that simple, as there is a 3D effect with reflection/ray tracing, which is a significant creative input. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:43, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Graeme Bartlett: I you think that this does not look that simple, you should take a very good look at c:Category:Audi logos and c:Category:Audi rings, where the logos (which looks the same as this one) can be found. XPanettaa (talk) 20:52, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
- Those ones are also too complex for copyright. In most cases the photographer or designer would own the copyright. When 3D objects are photographed a new copyright exists in the 2D work. But the original 3D rings would not ahve a copyright, as the rings made of metal themselves are PD-simple. The rings depicted in Audi-Logo 2016.svg would be PD-simple also. But File:Audi logo detail.svg is a copyright infringement as it was lifted off an Audi website. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 00:02, 16 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Graeme Bartlett: Well I don't think that these ones really are complex for copyright, aren't they? They're just simple geometric shapes (circles). And also, it seems unlikely to me that File:Audi logo detail.svg really is a copyright infringement. This image only consists of simple geometric shapes (circles, which are made of metal themselves) and text. It seems that the rings made of metal themselves are PD-simple. See c:Commons:Threshold of originality#Germany and Threshold of originality#Germany for information. XPanettaa (talk) 19:29, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

- Comment - I'm just passing by. I noticed that the introduction of this page had mentioned "restoring pages... in deletion debates with little or no participation other than the nominator".

Done - as an Articles for creation submission deleted under CSD G13, the page has been restored on request. Please edit the page to address the issues raised when it was declined, and re-submit it; "Articles for creation" is not for the indefinite hosting of material found to be unsuitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. JohnCD (talk) 08:08, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Clr06160: I've reverted the comment you made below this one. Saying "Give me my data you bastards" is NOT a good way to get what you want. I also note that you created a temporary page at the draftspace and said about the same thing, accusing us of being bastards and not giving you your data back. As you can see here, all you had to do was ask for it back. I've given you a temporary block for what is ultimately an attack against others. It might have been in general, but that type of behavior is still unacceptable. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:15, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
karamoko dembele
I want to edit this football player but i don't have much information about him. Plesae help me! -Dorinrin (talk) 07:18, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
- It looks like it was deleted as a test page, since the only content was as follows:
{{Infobox football biography | name = Karamoko Dembele | birth_date = | birth_place = | height = | currentclub = Celtic Under 20 | clubnumber = | youthyears1 =
My recommendation would be to work on the article in the draftspace at Draft:Karamoko dembele. Someone already started an article there and that would be the best place to start, since you'd have more time to edit. As far as getting help goes, I'd recommend talking to the group at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football, as that is a project full of people devoted to anything football related.

Trustlook
Please restore this page. will work on improving information about this security company.
Not done This was deleted for two reasons, WP:A7 (notability) and WP:G11 (unambiguous advertising). Either one would make it something that we wouldn't restore, at least not at REFUND. You can ask the deleting admin, Sphilbrick, if he will restore it to the draftspace or email you a copy. Offhand it looks like the reason for its deletion was the use of promotional WP:BUZZWORDS like "innovator" and "leading experts", terms that are very frequently used to promote a topic. On a side note, if you are employed by the company and/or are otherwise affiliated with them, you will need to disclose this per WP:COI. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:31, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

i have written only one sentence without any matérial previously deleted by other. it is my own creation with my own sources. i have put 2 sources that are correct i think -Vatadoshufrench 14:10, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
- So we won't speedy delete this with G4. But what are are you asking us to do here? Do you want a history restore? Have you viewed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Appium? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:24, 11 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Vatadoshu: I am waiting for a reply from you. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:17, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
- Graeme Bartlett i don't know, it seems the speedy deletion is stopped but another procedure of deletion is running. (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Appium (2nd nomination)). I am not familiar with wiki "en" so i will let you communnity do what it want.
- on my talk page "Walter Görlitz (talk) said "If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion"." and i think i come here after. But then torai stop speedy deletion https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Talk:Appium&diff=743859745&oldid=743839917 . and now just a running deletion (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Appium (2nd nomination)).
- And now i will just wait for the article to be delete or not. (i don't know what is G4, and i will not ask for a restauration of the history while the article will perhaps beeing delete. So i will just wait.)Vatadoshufrench 11:51, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
- You should give a better explanation of why you want to keep that page on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Appium (2nd nomination). The G4 delete reason is for when a page that was deleted comes back the same. (or even worse) Since you wrote this from scratch, it does not apply. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:56, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
- Graeme Bartlett "You should give a better explanation of why you want to keep that page on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Appium (2nd nomination" i have already given sources and explanation. If it is not enough, i am ok, to the article to be deleted. Vatadoshufrench 13:25, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Clonbony GAA
To my opinion, during the AfD-discussion the fact that Clonbony GAA Ladies won three consecutive county titles (and took part in the island-wide All-Ireland competition) was insufficient appreciated as the participants focused on the hurling (male) part. But that is the way it goes, so I like to have the article userfied so I can improve it without AfD-stress. -The Banner talk 15:02, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

Template:Populous series
This template was deleted almost 8 years ago as the result of a WP:TFD discussion: Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Log/2008 November 5#Template:Populous series. I was not editing regularly at the time, but if I was, I would have voted to "keep" it. As referenced in the TFD discussion, the nominator's rationale was that the template was redundant to Template:Bullfrog Productions. My keep vote would have stated something along the lines of "Keep. Populous DS, a title of the series, was not produced by Bullfrog Productions since that company was absorbed by Electronic Arts (specifically EA UK) in 2001 and Populous DS was produced in 2007/2008." I'd like this template restored so that I can continue to work on it in its previous state to improve it for Wikipedia use. -Steel1943 (talk) 15:30, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

I am still working on the page and have gathered better citations to source the article -SurbhiJain23257 (talk) 05:33, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
Not done and will not be done It looks like it was deleted at AfC in the past for containing copyrighted material. It also looks like you didn't address these issues when you tried to recreate the article at AfC, which I didn't see when I reviewed the article or I'd have nominated it for speedy deletion then and there, rather than let it get G13'd. You cannot and I repeat CANNOT post copyrighted material on Wikipedia. Closely paraphrasing something is seen as a copyright violation just as much as taking it word for word. Even if it is not initially discovered, it will eventually be found out and no amount of sourcing can rescue an article if it's entirely taken from a copyrighted source. The article would still have to be completely re-written. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:38, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

Not done Yes it was done by someone messing with Wikipedia. He never wrote about the CD, and changed his mind, and the page was deleted. Even if he did not change his mind to blank the page, it would have been speedy deleted as A7. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:33, 17 October 2016 (UTC)
- Rebecca Moonstone: Yup, the entirety of the content is "Chris Dunlaevy Chris Dunlaevy is awesome, likes football, and is cool." There's nothing there to restore. I also have to say that it doesn't look like this is really covered anywhere, to the point where I almost thought the CD didn't exist or was never released.

I noticed that this page was deleted because the radio station in question is now defunct. I don't believe that is good reasoning for deletion of the page.

A wikipedia article is needed for IMDO just like for all other important international science competitions for high school students, both to document its existence and ongoing annual occurrence for historical reasons and to facilitate research by journalists, high school students, parents and educators who are looking for more information about the event.
- I'll note this is not actually explaining how you think the listed concerns which included questionining its stated information, are not applicable, and then how you would actually improve it, because simply stating that it's this or that, and that it "should have an article like any other group" is not how notability and an article are made. I believe you honestly should've put better statements than simply stating us what it's about, and instead actually focus with what's suitable for articles here. SwisterTwister talk 04:59, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
I did not have access to the prior content of the article, and I was not aware of the "listed concerns". I only knew there was a tremendous demand for information on this international competition from the top American high schools and Asian countries, especially China, South Korea and Singapore, where it made news because their teams did well in the competition. I discovered that there was an article in wikipedia on the International Medicine Olympiad, and it was deleted. I found that there are wikipedia articles for similar international competitions that are still in existence and have not been deleted, and so I would like to address this curious omission. Please kindly let me know what the "listed concerns" were, and maybe I can do some investigation and address them, or maybe others who are much more knowledgeable about the competition can do so. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JL905 (talk • contribs) 13:13, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
- It looks like the concern listed for the PROD was the concern that it was not notable and that the article was essentially calling it a fraud. Fortunately, PRODs are restorable on request here. Unfortunately, attack pages, which this could conceivably fall under, are not. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 17:35, 18 October 2016 (UTC)

- I have to assume that you're asking for the restoration of the draft article. A look at the article shows that it's written in a very casual, almost promotional style that would need to be substantially, if not completely, rewritten in order to meet NPOV guidelines. I'm also concerned about notability - either one would be a barrier to acceptance at AfC. My recommendation here is for you to just start on a new AfC draft - however I do have to caution you that writing your own article is heavily discouraged on Wikipedia per WP:COI and WP:AUTOBIO.

Gary Llama
Provided notability with new association -Spookyhaunts (talk) 08:21, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
- Since it looks like some A7 material might get restored as well, I'm going to tag GorillaWarfare on this just to make sure that she's OK with this. Offhand I see no reason not to restore this, although I'd recommend restoring it to WP:AfC. I'm concerned that Llama might not pass notability guidelines given the sourcing on the deleted page. A good chunk of the sourcing is WP:PRIMARY, meaning that it was written by Llama himself. Be careful about the association with notable groups and people. Working with them doesn't automatically mean that he inherits notability from these groups - the general assumption with NBAND is that the performer will play a large enough role in the groups to where they would be mentioned in reliable sources. Showing up in the database credits on AllMusic doesn't establish this - you need reviews and articles that specifically mention him. Also something to be careful about with sources is to make sure that the sources discuss Llama in depth. Stuff like this could be considered a WP:TRIVIAL mention because Llama isn't the focus of the article. The article isn't about him and the basic gist is that he was brought in as a commentator, which isn't the type of coverage that shows notability on here. This one might be usable. It's a little brief, but it could be useful. However this brevity could be something that could count against it, as it's not really the strongest source to base notability on and people could argue that it's too short. This is good and the RTD is a RS on here, however the issue here is that it's local and these tend to be depreciated on Wikipedia. It's really difficult to establish notability on local sources.

Promotion content which violates G11 will be removed and although credible sources have been mentioned, more will be added for A7 -Mohdify (talk) 11:23, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
- Actually, for a restoration, you need to explicitly show and cite what, where and why you improve it, and that you acknowledge the concerns of it; a G11 advertising is quite rarely restored if it was simply existing for advertising. For example, for a subject to be notable and acceptable, we need in-depth third-party sources such as news (note press releases and simple mentions are not convincing for notability, therefore, please state here what improvements you would actually make, considering these notes). Another solution to G11 is actually restarting it altogether with new contents and at least using a WP:AFC Draft so it can be reviewed. SwisterTwister talk 23:11, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
File:DOORN Records.png
This image was restored by Magog the Ogre on Wikimedia Commons on September 7, saying that this logo is "pretty simple even for its home country" and "I think it is below TOO", but nine hours later, Natuur12 nominated this image for deletion again, saying "Restoring this file ingores a decade of Dutch case law" and this image was deleted by lNeverCry earlier on October 19, saying "better to leave this deleted than to guess and not be sure". However, it is unlikely that anyone is sure that this logo would be a copyright violation in the Netherlands, judged by c:Com:TOO#Netherlands, but it would be borderline. In the United States, this would not be a copyright violation, because the blocks can be seen as a typeface, forming the letters D-O-O-R-N, as Jcb has said that per this deletion request. I think that this logo should be restored here (not on Commons) and relicensed to {{PD-ineligible-USonly|the Netherlands}}. XPanettaa (talk) 20:38, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Udaiyan
The original article was deleted in 2009 as it was deemed that the artist was not notable. It looks like in the meantime he has had extensive coverage in the international press: Washington Post, Daily Mail and two articles in the Guardian newspaper. Other artists have individual pages with less press coverage. People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. This artist has had multiple coverage on different occasions from reliable independent international newspapers. He is also notable as he is the founder or the Cambridge Stuckists. - 217.33.181.41 (talk) 08:51, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

- You may also want to read Wikipedia:Your first article, which explains what is expected of articles on Wikipedia.
- Articles or promotional content, (including CVs or resumes) on user pages may be deleted. For more information on userpages, see Wikipedia:User pages.
