Kourage Beatz NSI[change source]

Dear Wikipedia Administrators,

I am writing to request the undeletion of the page "Kourage Beatz NSI," which was deleted on multiple occasions. The most recent deletion occurred on January 2, 2024, at 08:38 (UTC), with the reason cited as "Recreation of a deleted page with the same or similar content (QD G4)." Previous deletions also cited reasons such as advertising (QD G11) and creation by a user evading a block or ban (G5).

I understand the concerns related to the content and creation history of the page. However, I am seeking an opportunity to address these issues and contribute a revised version of the page that adheres to Wikipedia's guidelines and policies. I assure you that the new content will be devoid of advertising, comply with notability standards, and will not be a reproduction of previously deleted material.

I kindly request the Wikipedia community's consideration in reinstating the "Kourage Beatz NSI" page, providing an opportunity to rectify past issues and contribute meaningful content to the platform.

Thank you for your time and consideration.Dushdoo (talk) 18:04, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

endorse the article is clearly A4 and not able to be made notable. fr33kman 00:01, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request Undeletion of Yoanna Gouchtchina[change source]

I am requesting undeleletion of Yoanna Gouchtchina. The article was speedily deleted for not showing notability which I may not agree with. I believe the person is notable enough for the article to remain. The person has authored about 5 patents, she made an invention which is also patented, she is featured on Forbes among other reasons. Below, I am listing a couple of references which I believe are enough to prove notability. By the way, there are others available online, but I felt they may not be very credible and chose to leave them.

1. List of patents she authored
2. Yoanna Gouchtchina Inventions, Patents and Patent Applications - Justia Patents Search
3. Feature on Forbes "Why Russian Tech Startups Like ZeeRabbit Are Emigrating To The West"
4. A feature on USA Today
5. A published interview
6. another Published interview
7. An article in French among others

I request you to have a look at my article, accept my request and guide me accordingly. Thank you all.

  • I think this is about as clear an advert for the person that I have ever seen. Its intent is so obvious that, even after years on this wiki, I'm still surprised anyone has the gall to do it. Do we not understand the world? Do we not understand that commercial people pay agents to place promotions like this? Actually, we do. Macdonald-ross (talk) 09:59, 19 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. I've taken a look at the deleted article and it's nothing more than advertisement, stay deleted fr33kman 10:02, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have looked at the article, and it is a CV-style, she's a businessperson, founded a company that launched a product, plus her CV. Note that foundingf a company, and launching a product do not make you notable; zillions of people do this, 9 out of 10 startups fail, for different reasons. That people usually patent a technolgoy or procedure, to protect the product they are selling is normal. I looked at two of the sources you gave, they are interviews. So, again, what did this person do that could make her notable?--Eptalon (talk) 08:35, 29 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Just looked a bit into this. The sources mentioned seem to mostly be interviews, which don't really meet the requirements for sources. The USA Today source, though, I think is valid. Forbes contributors can be fine depending on the writer. This writer doesn't seem to be a subject expert. Dotdashmeredith (talk) 20:03, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Charles Ndukauba[change source]

I have not been a novice to simple English Wikipedia. But following simple English Wikipedia requirement for WP:Notability. The article passed WP: BIO, WP: Writer as some poem and books was listed. Being alone the Anambra State children's Parliament ambassador and activist according to Punch Newspaper, Nigeria already tag notability. I know it has been deleted up to three times. I plead with administrator that I will wikify and edit it well. Thanks. Best, Editing Wizard (talk) 00:15, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • endorse This article has been deleted not three times but six. It should be created as notable the first time. I see no need to undelete it. If it can truly be made to meet our notability guidelines then it should have been done when it was created not worked on after it was created. I have done the research on this subject and it will not pass notability. fr33kman 19:10, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Minnesota Zoo[change source]

I believe the deletion of the article Minnesota Zoo, which I uploaded, on the grounds of A3: "was copied from another Wikipedia", is unfair, because I did not copy the entire article en:Minnesota Zoo from English Wikipedia, only a few paragraphs, which I did paraphrase and simplify. I believe the article, did meet the Simple English Wikipedia requirements for WP:Notability and Simple English. I wish they gave time and added the {{wait}} tag in the article, instead of immediately deleting it. The article could have been rectified easily to fulfill the criteria, as it was short and simplified. 31.200.18.164 (talk) 12:34, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I just created Minnesota Zoo, taking Wikipedia policy into account and rephrased the paragraphs. This article is much shorter and is thoroughly sourced. Gartok (talk) 00:31, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Vespa velutina eradication[change source]

Eptalon deleted QD A6: The page is a fake or a hoax. Undeletion was requested User talk:Eptalon § Vespa velutina eradication on User talk:. Eptalon has not replied.

Fr33kman replied It may be a hoax or it may be a goal. I couldn't find anything on Google to indicate there is a concerted effort to eradicate this species.

There are a large number of results on Google and in any case a search is unnecessary. The article has WP:RS WP:PRIMARY and WP:SECONDARY. The WP:PRIMARYs provide links and budget information for multiple current eradication campaigns on 2 continents – including the most recent discoveries [1][2]. The WP:SECONDARYs review them.

WP:QD#A6 shows Quick Deletion of sourced articles as hoaxes is not expected Articles that do not have sources. It is not stated explicitly because this is considered so far outside of the realm of possibility. I suggest changing it to state this explicitly. Invasive Spices (talk) 18:43, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • overturn A6 is not the correct QD reason. Google Scholar indicates there are studies that are looking into ways of eradication even if there is no such efforts under large (concerted) effort. The article should be undeleted so that it can be fixed. fr33kman 19:01, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Separation of East Pakistan: The Untold Story[change source]

I created the article only earlier today with citations already in place. This article is about a documentary. Literally minutes after I created it, a tag for Quick Deletion was stamped on it. The "reason" given was that it was non-notable. I placed deletion wait tag underneath as well as a construction tag. I added over half a dozen third-party published citations as well as links to movie review sites such as Rotten Tomatoes and The Movie Database. I even opened a discussion on the talk page pointing to all the citations and pointing to General Notability guidelines, I received no response, including from the one who placed the tag. The article was then abruptly deleted without any proper review or response to the discussion I opened pointing to it's notability. I am seriously disappointed by the knee-jerk environment here. There's even more citations I added, but I added over half a dozen sources discussing the subject itself, which itself in turn is part of a larger history subject. I would like a full and just review of the situation. The original requester should have opened a discussion on a talk page to state his concerns or something of that sort rather than abruptly tagging it for deletion.--NadirAli (talk) 18:00, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Coat of Arms of Bulgaria[change source]

I'm considering this article for un-deletion but would like some more input first. Deleted per A4 by @Macdonald-ross:. I know we've had a problem in the past with "X of Y" articles. National flower or bird or any other non-notable thing. However I think the official coat of arms of a country is perhaps a little more notable than those other cases. I think at an RfD, this would be kept. --Gordonrox24 | Talk 22:26, 13 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

SpaceTIS[change source]

"Undeleted". I am requesting that the page "SpaceTIS" should be un-deleted. SpaceTIS is a well-known Aerospace and Defense company doing business and working with notable governments in Europe, the USA, Africa, and the Middle East. The company received multiple awards worldwide and it was named Top #1 Aerospace Company in North America and in the World in 2023. This Wikipedia page about SpaceTIS should not be deleted. Please UNDELETE the page — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ramatou2020 (talkcontribs) 00:31, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Undeleted because the page was deleted under A4, but there were claims of notability. However, the page may still be deleted as advertising because the tone is promotional, and it could also be taken to RFD. Pinging @Macdonald-ross: as deleting admin. -- Auntof6 (talk) 13:06, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Removed a lot of the promotional fluff and ended up taking it to RFD after a search for useful, secondary sources didn't turn up anything worth adding. Feels like some COI or UPE editing happening here. Ravensfire (talk) 15:30, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Broda Shaggi[change source]

Please I humbly request the undeletion of Broda Shaggi. Actually, the page was created recently with sources and notable citations and was deleted tagging A4. I believe it may be a mistake. Pinging deleting Administrator, Macdonald-ross. Best, Mastashat (talk) 14:14, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The usual reason is that the page does not tell us why the person is notable. Macdonald-ross (talk) 14:25, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But I don't think this page in question has ever been written in Simple English Wikipedia. Talking about your reply, I guess it's a clear misconception.
That page was cited by up to eight notable and reliable citations.
Per musician, the musics from meet google search was added.
Per actor, there was Selected filmography mentioning his notable movies.
Per other wordings, there are list of some of his awards (accolades). Using all these, what exact notability do the Nominator seek for the subject of the page. Best, Mastashat (talk) 14:29, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I guess the page passed WP: GNG and it's addition from enwiki. So, what in details do your aspect of notability requires if not in WP: Notability. Best, Mastashat (talk) 14:31, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Let the page be reviewed because I don't see how he doesn't claim notability when he has acted notable Nigerian movies, won awards for acting and some were listed on the page before deletion. Even if there is still doubt of notability, it should be rfd instead. Best, Mastashat (talk) 19:51, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • RfD In fairness, there was a claim to notability (that he won an award), but I'm not sure whether this article clearly passes GNG so I'd prefer this to be sent to RfD. --Ferien (talk) 19:33, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The subject has won many awards according to Nigerian sources credit to his movies. So don't we think having appeared on notable movies and wom awards for his movies. The page in question was created newly by me and just like Indo researches and add them one by one, I just saw it deleted per not notable. @Macdonald-ross deleted the page as if it was recently deleted. I request admins check whether it has been deleted earlier per notability. I guess Broda Shaggi is important to be included on this wiki. Best, Mastashat (talk) 19:47, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Sure, it clearly passed WP: GNG. I believe the page was in work before deletion but not even A4 because the edits already established notability while work continues. Best, Mastashat (talk) 19:48, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Candy Bleakz[change source]

I think the deletion of the page Candy Bleakz be overturned. This is because the page has been overly simplified by me. I further broke it down into simpler paragraphs; also taking out ambiguous statements.

2020 United States presidential election in [state][change source]

I don't think these articles qualified for quick deletion as housekeeping. Kk.urban (talk) 15:21, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. @Fr33kman:, as the deleting admin, would you care to comment? -- Auntof6 (talk) 21:43, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I check to see if any other articles had been made for other years As there were not I thought that maybe these that are need while the election was on and deleted afterwards. If these are notable should there should't we have articles for all elections? fr33kman 18:07, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would say that we can have article for other elections. As for whether we should, maybe we should, but we get the articles that people want to create. No one is obligated to create any particular article. -- Auntof6 (talk) 02:23, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Auntof6@Fr33kman@Kk.urban On 22 February, I requested these to be deleted and no one responded. On 8 March, I sent them to QD to be deleted. Everything that was on them was already in the main article (a specific section) for how each state voted. I did not feel (and still do) that we do not need these stubs as they can never be developed into a more robust article.
Also, going forward, I would like to recommend that if someone brings up something here, the original requester be notified. I happened to come across this to respond to another request that popped up in IRC. Otherwise, I would not have known and I would like to explain why it was requested. Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 05:39, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@PotsdamLamb OK, I will notify the original requester in the future, if I can tell who it was.
As for the main page, 2020 United States presidential election, I don't see much details on each state, only a map showing the winner of each state. The individual state pages usually have the vote counts and percentages for each state, as well as a separate map for each state (for example, see en:2020 United States presidential election in Pennsylvania. I don't have a strong opinion of whether these are needed for all elections, but I don't think the QD rationale for housekeeping is meant for cases like this, where information will be deleted. Kk.urban (talk) 05:45, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Kk.urban Since a lot of them are tables, they can be copied over to our article (with attribution). We did not have one for each state for that request. I can start on this tonight when I get home from work. These were very basic, with information copied over from en wiki. I think this would be the best way as we are simple and should not be sending our readers all over the place to read the results. Just turn it into a "one-stop shop,"1 if you will.

@Kk.urban I checked en wiki. They only have 3 states with the same title. Everything else is all in the main article they have. Is there anything in particular you want me to pull over as someone spent a lot of time on that article and they have all sorts of tables on it.

Hi there after doing extensive research and discovering the artist other part of his full name the following came up https://southwarknews.co.uk/area/peckham/man-accused-of-possessing-sawn-off-shotgun-and-ammunition-in-peckham/
I understand discogs and music brains is not a reliable source according to Wikipedia however if you go on it you will see the artist full name. I also discovered the artist website which is the following https://jmerlin.mydurable.com/
You will also see the artist name of Instagram although it is just his first part of his surname https://www.instagram.com/merlin_made_it_bang
It’s very clear that this artist chooses not to use his entire full name due to the event that happened in 2015 however the artist needs to understand that entering the spotlight of the music industry, certain personal matters that are hidden will come to light eventually.

Byel[change source]

This page was deleted under A3 (Complex article from another Wikipedia, little sign of simplification/conversion). I guess I made mistake by not adding wait under the QD tag but I equally believe Simple English Wikipedia is a community where everyone learn different things. The editor may not know the rules like anyone random edits. I was even wikifying it before it was deleted. Please I humbly request the undeletion for further wikification. Best, Mastashat (talk) 14:27, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest recreating the article from scratch. It was a direct copy/paste from English Wikipedia. And yes, If you were in the process of simplifying the article, you should have added the {{wait}} template. Best, – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 14:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I have restored the page, so you can work on it a little more, if you like. Note however: Youtube does not confer notability, getting likes or followers on social media does not make a person notable. So, the page may well be re-deleted (using an RfD tthis time) Eptalon (talk) 14:34, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just because no one closes it doesn’t make consensus a keep. Even discarding the sock, there was support for merge so it should’ve been actioned upon. Consensus isn’t disregarded because admins don’t close it.47.23.6.178 (talk) 14:54, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

RfD isn't a venue for starting merge discussions. That is what {{merge}} is for. I don't know what you are talking about when you say admins don't close it – Eptalon closed it and there is nothing wrong with his close. --Ferien (talk) 19:35, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merging would take up a significant amount of time for an admin to do instantly when there are other RfDs to close. When you merge an article, you are keeping it, even if it may eventually become a redirect - that's why it's listed in the category "Requests for deletion that did not succeed". Regarding the close itself, there were no strong opinions either way, whether it was merge or delete. There was no reason to delete as these issues could be covered by merging, which is why Fr33kman suggested merging. But no-one was able to merge at the time, so the RfD was closed as keep for now, until someone would like to merge it. --Ferien (talk) 13:00, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. A similar recent case was this RFD, which I closed as keep when there was a consensus for merging. -- Auntof6 (talk) 13:17, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Justin Jin[change source]

Hi there! Requesting for the undeletion of deleted page Justin Jin. This is my bad, I didn't realize that there was a space for undeletion requests. Although QDG4 was somewhat applicable here, I did completely rewrite the article on this subject. This page was also previously deleted for QDA4, though, honestly unsure why the subject does not meet notability. According to Mashable, which is a highly reputable news source, he created the "world's largest teenager-led media company," and according to their website and the below sites they have "7 billion views." See below.

  • USA Today
  • Forbes Mexico
  • Mashable
  • Forbes
  • The Daily Trust
  • and a few more but I'm unsure they meet the reliable source requirements.
    • All of these references have already been checked and found not to support notability in the other RfDs for Poybo Media and The Vach. Some direct, reported media coverage from a major, reliable news source is required for this. Too much evidence of PR and content placement. Should remain deleted. --Gotanda (talk) 05:38, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Category:British King's Counsel[change source]

C1 only applies for categories that have been empty for 4 days or more. This had not applied. Pinging @Fr33kman: as deleting admin. --Ferien (talk) 20:32, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And to expand. The category should not have been emptied in the first place, it should have been discussed. I added a wait tag to make it clear there was opposition. Had the deleting admin checked the history, they would have seen that this was being discussed, but this should not even have been deleted as C1 in the first place because it didn't apply. --Ferien (talk) 20:44, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Undeleted as requested. There is however no such country as Britain therefore there is no such thing as "British" King's Counsels. Rathfelder is correct in saying that it should not be British King's Counsel as there is no such thing as a British lawyer. fr33kman 22:00, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Whether the categorisation is "correct" or not is irrelevant, it is still a violation of policy both on your end and on Rathfelder's. --Ferien (talk) 23:47, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Fr33kman, to your point of there being no such country as Britain: That is true, but "British" is used as the adjective for the United Kingdom. The term could be used as an umbrella term for anything related to the UK or parts of it. -- Auntof6 (talk) 04:57, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You are correct. fr33kman 19:12, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    endorse What information exactly did you add? From what I can see, you added two additional news stories from 2017 that showed that a vigil had bgeen held.

Hatsune Miku[change source]

I think this page should be restored because it's notable. 2601:644:907E:A450:8D7B:D750:4FF7:273F (talk) 17:13, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is not judged by your opinion of notability, I do not believe it was notable. 88.110.38.249 (talk) 20:06, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Actually. en:Hatsune Miku is quite notable. It's not mentioned that well in the article, but a quick search will easily show that Miku is one of the most notable vocaloid voice banks.

Nvidia RTX 4000 SFF Ada Generation[change source]

This page was deleted because of advertising. It did not look like advertising and is written in encylopedical format. As per User talk:Macdonald-ross, this page contained a lot of mentions of Nvidia, but I explained the Quadro naming was dropped in Nvidia workstation GPUs as of the Ampere generation in 2020, so I used Nvidia as start of title instead of Quadro. Can we undelete? Xeverything11 (talk) 13:29, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Xeverything11, I agree that I don't think the QD criteria applies here, but...separate pages for all of these isn't really helpful. You can make a single list of Nvidia graphics processing units, like we have on the English Wikipedia, and include basically the same information (if you provide sources) but all in one page. Vermont 🐿️ (talk) 01:08, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: I looked at what was in the article. I agree that it didn't look like advertising. However, there was nothing showing notability (no claim of notability and no references) so I think it should stay deleted. --Auntof6 (talk) 21:17, 5 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WorldWide CDI Organization[change source]

Hello, I am asking you to restore a previously deleted article about the organization, since the reason for its deletion is unreasonable, and the reason was as follows: G4 (recreating deleted articles). About 2 years ago, a previously written article really had a lot of flaws, and a complete lack of sources. But after two years, I have significantly improved the article, added enough sources to it (including an authoritative source such as webgate.ec.europa.eu ), and having collected all the materials (which are easily verifiable), I decided to re-write the article, but the administrator deleted it for a reason: It was previously deleted. After reading more about it, I found out that the article is deleted according to this criterion only if the copies are identical or similar, but the content of the article is completely different at the moment (the administrator of this Wikipedia section, Auntof6, agrees with me), he advised me to go to this page so that the article could be restored - which I did. I repeat once again that the article has authority at the moment, I want to say that I want to help Wikipedia as its participant, but sometimes I am not understood. Please reconsider, thank you. Nikolay Zhivtsov 10:53, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • I went through both the revisions of the page (before and after deletion). The content in both revisions are different, but the addition mostly seem unsourced and somewhat promotional in nature with no significant claim of notability. The new version is significantly more complex as well. I think the page should remain deleted, but if anyone else agrees with restoring the page, it can be taken to fresh RFD.--BRP ever 00:57, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
