Reasons for undeleting page:
Critical person in the OJ Simpson trial.
Author or two books regarding OJ Simpson trial.
Also on the reality tv show, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
- Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Namiba (talk), who proposed it, and who may choose to nominate it at WP:Articles for deletion, which would start a debate lasting seven days, to which you would be welcome to contribute. The article needs more references showing significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources to establish WP:Notability. JohnCD (talk) 21:04, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
DJ Matt Rees
I feel this page was deleted for the wrong reason and it was explained within the article why DJ Matt Rees was a significant person. DJ Matt Rees is an up and coming disk jockey in Burnley and for this reason we feel a Wikipedia page in his name is needed - DJ Matt Rees will soon be DJing in London's biggest clubs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SLowe 001 (talk • contribs) 09:02, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles concerning people. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. And once Matt is actually DJing in big clubs your piece will still not be the basis for an article here. --Tikiwont (talk) 21:58, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
Michele Knotz
Article was deleted per A7 (subject is a voiceover artist in the United States and has plenty of credits to her name) and the article being "unsourced" was also cited, but this should not be the reason A7 was applied. -—Ryulong (琉竜) 15:19, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
- Done - The A7 one was just a mere sentence, but there was a previous version with the credits but still no real sources, that I've restored as a contested proposed deletion. --Tikiwont (talk) 22:19, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
- Given that the article had already been listed at AfD i brought it back there. --Tikiwont (talk) 22:37, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
Trashy Bags
Contested PROD. The only visible part of the PROD rationale - the claim that the article was edited by people paid by the organisation itself - appears to be incorrect (although it is true that some COI editing occurred). From what I can remember of the article contents, it had at least some independent/reliable sourcing. ---Demiurge1000 (talk) 10:54, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
- Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. Lectonar (talk) 11:06, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Demiurge1000. One of the article's editors was Stuartgold (t·c) — Trashy Bags managing director. Here was the entire PROD rationale: "Read this article carefully; also see its history. It was first written, and is sometimes edited, by people paid by the Trashy Bags enterprise. It will forever attract spam from enterprise employees like Stuartgold (t·c) and Prochaz.tom (t·c). The enterprise should discuss its good works and its products on its own site, not here." Demiurge1000, I wonder if you'd be willing to please re-PROD the article now? Kind regards, --Unforgettableid (talk) 18:35, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
- The COI editing I was aware of was by someone who claimed to be an unpaid volunteer. However, the existence or future likelihood of paid editing, however extensive, is not sufficient reason for deletion if the article is otherwise acceptable. Please take it to AfD if you feel it necessary. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 18:52, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Preston Toroidal Scale
external authors have found this article worth citing and spurred them on to new observations. No copyrights are violated by this material and it is not particularly controversial. -70.136.24.119 (talk) 07:07, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
- Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Semitransgenic (talk), who proposed it, and who may choose to nominate it at WP:Articles for deletion, which would start a debate lasting seven days to which you would be welcome to contribute. If the article is to be kept, it needs references, to satisfy the WP:Verifiability and WP:Notability requirements. JohnCD (talk) 11:47, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
- sorry I don't get it, an IP makes a request stating "external authors have found this article worth citing" and it's reinstated without discussion? Yet it remains unsourced, not a single cite, zero reliable sources offered. What exactly is the point of prod then? Semitransgenic talk. 15:08, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
- Try reading WP:PROD. If you thought it could be contested, then you should have gone straight to WP:AFD. (✉→BWilkins←✎) 15:36, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) The point of PROD is to save work at AfD for uncontroversial deletions. As soon as someone objects, it is no longer uncontroversial. Yes, there should be discussion, and that's what AfD is for. See WP:DEL#Proposed deletion: "Even after the page is deleted, any editor can have the page restored by any administrator simply by asking." JohnCD (talk) 15:41, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Tham Fook Cheong
reasoning -Junthree (talk) 13:09, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
I would like to submit an article on a Feng Shui Master who is quite well known among the chinese in South East Asia. I really think he met the notability condition. Please help to check and advise. A lot of people would love to read more about this guy. Thanks!
- Not done. An article about him was deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tham Fook Cheong, PPT, and the deletion review at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2010 March 19 said that the article should not be re-created until an acceptable draft was produced. You had a draft in your user space, which is now at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Tham Fook Cheong. What you need to do is, read WP:Your first article, WP:Notability, WP:Notability (people) and WP:42, and expand the draft to explain why he is important and significant, with references that confirm what you say. Then apply at WP:Deletion review, with a link to your draft. JohnCD (talk) 12:15, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Jill Meagher
reasoning -120.145.71.56 (talk) 05:12, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
Jill Meagher, The reason for undeleting her page is as follows; The murder of Jill was a turning point in highlighting the dangers females face when walking unaccompanied at night. Her death bought the nation together in grief and outrage at how easily a women can be abducted and murdered in plain view of the public. Her murder was a huge wake up call for women throughout Australia.
- Comment: The page has not been deleted, but redirects to Death of Jill Meagher, where the event is fully covered. The reasons for doing it this way are explained at WP:SINGLEEVENT. JohnCD (talk) 11:55, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
- Comment: also it is the death of the person and the reaction by the community and the points that you mention that are specifically notable, and why the article is structured in the way that it is, and a redirect from the person to the event has been put in place. This process is not downplaying the significance. — billinghurst sDrewth 14:04, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Razana

As this is my Latin teacher and is a very good page about him. It marks his achievements and provides info about him. -2.25.68.13 (talk) 18:28, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done - this page has not yet been deleted. It has been turned into a redirect. See http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Simon_R.H._James&action=history for earlier versions and reasons it was converted to point to a book he wrote. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:47, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
FolderSize
Reputable free tool is deleted as spam. Topic discussed with User_talk:RHaworth#FolderSize. Please restore this page. --Allancass (talk) 23:50, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done Rhaworth referred you to deletion review or AfC. I'd opt for the second one. This board here is only for uncontroversial stuff. -Tikiwont (talk) 09:00, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
vp-asp
This page was deleted back in 2008 with the reason that VP-ASP is a 'non-notable software package'. VP-ASP have sold over 60,000 licenses since 1999 and are definitely a company worthy of having a wiki page. I can supply references to support VP-ASP if necessary. -VP-ASP (talk) 03:31, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- Comment: Requester was blocked from Wikipedia for username violation. Optakeover(Talk) 03:43, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done We're certainly not going to undelete something that was deleted 5 years ago. If the company meets notability standards, someone unaffiliated with the organization can draft something (✉→BWilkins←✎) 17:30, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
Uruthikottai Vattagai Nagarathar
I do not know why this article has been deleted. This is unfair. Please restore the article -203.200.103.226 (talk) 05:02, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done Normally, a recent WP:PROD can be undeleted pretty much on-demand. Unfortunately, not in this case. This "article" is unsourced, and nearly-incomprehensible. It's impossible to even know what the "article" is supposed to be about (✉→BWilkins←✎) 17:25, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
Filipino Turkish Tolerance School
reasoning -Alim.kocak (talk) 05:31, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
Im still editing it by adding references, link and more.
- Not done But what about notability? Article space is not place to create a draft that doesn't meet basic requirements: try a userspace draft in your sandbox, or articles for creation (✉→BWilkins←✎) 17:28, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
deleted out of boredom by some user, back in 2007 "1:25 10 nov 2007 Ctrl Z (discusión · contribuciones) borró la página «Wolfgang Weingart» (el contenido era: «{{destruir}}may may may toy aki en mi instituto aburrido y pensando en un pato»)" -Rodrigoviolante (talk) 15:48, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- Well, then you should ask for undeletion at es.wikipedia; we have no "jurisdiction" over them. Lectonar (talk) 16:04, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done As per above AND for the fact that something deleted in 2007 certainly is not an uncontrovertial undeletion (✉→BWilkins←✎) 17:29, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
AppLift
AppLift was taken down because it was deemed promotional, but to write it I took as a reference frame the article on Trademob ,which is a very similar company. If the article on AppLift was promotional, then that on Trademob should be as well. Thanks for your understanding. Thomas -Tomaso67 (talk) 15:05, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS is exactly the type of argument to avoid. Feel free to nominate the other article for deletion if you feel it does not meet the notability, sourcing, etc standards (✉→BWilkins←✎) 15:09, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
- Hi; for my own understanding, can you explain why the Trademob article complies with the standards and not AppLift's? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomaso67 (talk • contribs) 17:37, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
Amapola Cabase

Category talk:Presidencies of the United States
This category talk page was deleted by a bot, but the category itself is still there. I'm confused. I don't understand why it was deleted, but it seems it was by an error in bot logic. I confess I don't quite understand the discussion that led to the deletion, which the deletion points to. Please restore this talk page, if it makes sense to. Maybe when I read it the discussion will make more sense. Oh, I see. The bot reacted to this request to "Empty then delete". Ah, I see. The public logs tell the story. Cydebot deleted the page, as it was told to, on 7 November 2012. But then on 5 December 2012, it was restored as "mistakenly deleted." Pls restore the corresponding category talk page, as it was obviously also "mistakenly deleted." -Wbm1058 (talk) 23:05, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

I still do not know how to communicate using the talk page and i have received no messages as to why the deletion. Could someone please help me?? -Darkstar2000 (talk) 09:08, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Isle of Purbeck Aquarium
Fail to understand why this page has been deleted? We are a small public aquarium that is financially supported by the local council, local action groups and part of a rural development scheme.
On display are local species found within the River Frome, Dorset, as well as breeding projects most notably seahorses and cuttlefish.
We have excellent numbers of customer visits, and customers often ask why the wiki site has beeb deleted — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.52.131.216 (talk) 12:38, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
- Not done The "article" was deleted in 2010 as failing Wikipedia's general notability guidelines. I have reviewed the contents and agree that this is indeed a valid deletion reasoning. You should note that this is an encyclopedia, not a list of tourist/travel destinations or museums. It also requires extensive coverage in third party reliable sources. There's no question that the Aquarium exists, but notability (not just local) is a core component of Wikipedia. If people are asking "why was it deleted", I would be surprised (✉→BWilkins←✎) 12:50, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Category:Greek loanwords
The deleted category was one of a series of many categories by language and a sub-category of Category:Indo-European loanwords (it also includes Celtic, Germanic, Hindi, Iranian, Latin, Romance, Romani, Slavic and Urdu loanwords) which is a sub-category of the parent Category:Loanwords.

I thought about it and now I am relatively sure that I collected those links in a text file on my computer and not on Wikipedia in my userspace. I need to check the folders on the computer to see whether anything is there. Thanks for checking anyway.

Since the article you are here about was deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gunday, it cannot be undeleted through this process. Nevertheless, if you believe that the consensus found at the discussion was in error, or that significant new information has come to light since the deletion, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user MBisanz (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.

The deleted page referes to the band Monsterland which was an important part of the Connecticut music scene in the 1990's. The page is referenced in the existing Wiki page here: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Thom_Monahan I have no way of knowing why it was deleted but I think it would be more fitting to include whatever further information needed to make the page viable than to delete. If the page returns I will attempt to add content.

Hi AxVault is significant because it is not a for profit business yet and it has created a new use for the web. I wish we made money.
This description may get to the essence of the new concept better. ’AxVault online guitar archive, introduced the concept of web based records for historical provenance and the idea of “virtual Provenance”: i.e. utilizing the crowd sourcing of the internet to help identify and create a web based pedigree for guitars and other collectibles.
maybe we are not wording properly. There is no website that is that has attempted this concept. I believe it belongs on Wikipedia. Our concepts are very original.

Joe Vaz
I have no idea why my page was deleted, according the reason given on the page it was due to "Not notable unreferenced autobiography. No significant coverage in independent reliable sources". I find this very odd since a) I am an actor working in major international motion pictures and television, and b) since the page contained links to my official website at JoeVaz.com as well as to my imdb page, http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1978748/, both of which, I think, 'provide significant coverage in independent reliable sources'. Run a google search upon my name and you will find books, films, television programs, reviews and interviews about and with me. I do exist, and I am in the public eye, so I do not see why my page should be removed. -Fridgerat (talk) 02:16, 8 February 2013 (UTC)
- Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles concerning people. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning people will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. Your own website is not independent; and the IMDb is not considered a reliable source. Besides, lots of people in the IMDb are not notable: I ought to know, I'm one of them. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:13, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

- Not done We don't normally undelete pages that were deleted through speedy deletion criterion A7 here in any event, though I do question whether it met that standard—certainly I would have declined an A7 given the content—and it might very well be overturned at Wikipedia:Deletion review if properly brought there, but note that even if this was a proper topic for undeletion here, such as a article deleted based on a prod, I would not undelete the article based on your request because it contains an unsupported, scurrilous assertion of bias as the basis for the deletion.
