At
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peter A. Appel, I could not rebut the allegations made against Bloomberg because they were proofs by assertion groundless opinion, considered disruptive at AfD; even though I knew that if evidence were attempted I could refute it.
Further, the casual reader should read into the discussion that neither Bloomberg nor S&P Global are so fiducially irresponsible as to put their name on a wiki, to the extent that the notion should raise a question of competence or bias.
And further, my assertions were backed by the two RSN discussions I cited, which had been dismissed with IDHT. As per the RSN, editors are aware of the problem of puffery. In my experience, this doesn't make Bloomberg any less than among the best when it comes to measuring Wikipedia's notability.
There is one part of your close that I don't want to over state the case, that I have seen a difference between the usefulness of bloomberg biographies and Bloomberg company profiles. The topic under discussion, though, represented the founding of companies.

Hi, A Train. You deleted three articles per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dheeraj Singh Moirangthem in October 2017. I happened to see the AfD — god knows why — and noticed the articles were all bluelinked. It turned out they had all been recreated by User:ArsenalFan700 (sometimes by moving/redirecting, but in any case, they all came back to the encyclopedia). I nominated them for speedy per G4, as well as deleting a couple of redirects myself, and thought of reproaching ArsenalFan, but checked your page history first to see if perhaps he had consulted the deleting admin. It turned out he sort of had. Well, not consulted so much as told you he had recreated Dheeraj Singh Moirangthem. [1] This was after another user, in fact the nominator at the AfD, had posted to say the player was now notable and could you restore the article. [2] You archived the posts along with a whole lot of others, probably not noticing that those were questions. So now I'm uncertain about my speedy nominations. I can't face researching the other two articles (I know nothing about football), but I certainly can't see that you have been consulted about them. Anyway. I'll just leave this in your lap. :-) Please remove my speedy tags if you think that's best. Bishonen | talk 14:12, 13 January 2018 (UTC).

Hi A Train, Found you as one of the admins willing to userfy pages. One of my first and only articles, Ty Morse, was deleted last week after a deletion discussion that focused on RS, most of the sources came from newspapers, and GNG, which seemed to be in a gray area. Ultimately, the admin deleted it, which was incredibly disappointing to me. As an inexperienced editor, I think I didn't have the right wiki-speak for the debate. I'd like the chance to work on my article, improve it, and eventually resubmit it. Could you help me get access to the deleted article? Jemima1418 ( talk) 20:30, 23 January 2018 (UTC)

Kinda old but I don't check up on my old AfDs often. This is a prime example of bad logic imo. Firstly, INHERITED makes sense but not in conjunction with further logic, if a random man were to be suddenly selected as the VP of the United States of America right now, obviously the man would have notability due to the position he holds. The fact that you think the keep sides were flawed when clearly it wasn't the only logic that was offered is baffling. Obviously it's closed now and I have no qualms about the matter, so consider this as my 2 cents, just. -- QEDK ( 後 🌸 桜) 15:22, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Not that the user didn't deserve their block, but, contrary to what you seemed to be saying here, users are allowed to remove messages (save for SPI notices, MfD notices, and declined unblock requests from an active block) from their talk pages (they just can't then say they never got those warnings or notices). Daniel Case ( talk) 19:22, 27 April 2018 (UTC)
I recently blocked one of Aggiefan's socks; that led me over to the page to see what the issues had been with the master account.
Over at AIV we occasionally see reports from people who don't know BLANKING and think that deleting warnings and messages on your talk page counts as vandalism. It has often fallen to me to point them to that link.
Looking over the AN/I, my opinion on the stated reasons for the block hasn't changed. He should have been blocked purely for the disruption he created by continuing to edit his way (as, in the grand scheme of things, he was). If an editor simply, and repeatedly, deletes the messages left on his or her talk page, other editors should just stop engaging them as obviously they're not interested in engaging. It's not a blockable offense in and of itself, and anytime we suggest that it is, we give credence to the idea that admins just make up the rules as they go along to suit their personal preferences. Daniel Case ( talk) 05:53, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
Perhaps we should amend BLANKING a bit to account for this. Or train our admins better. Daniel Case ( talk) 14:22, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

At
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peter A. Appel, I could not rebut the allegations made against Bloomberg because they were proofs by assertion groundless opinion, considered disruptive at AfD; even though I knew that if evidence were attempted I could refute it.
Further, the casual reader should read into the discussion that neither Bloomberg nor S&P Global are so fiducially irresponsible as to put their name on a wiki, to the extent that the notion should raise a question of competence or bias.
And further, my assertions were backed by the two RSN discussions I cited, which had been dismissed with IDHT. As per the RSN, editors are aware of the problem of puffery. In my experience, this doesn't make Bloomberg any less than among the best when it comes to measuring Wikipedia's notability.
There is one part of your close that I don't want to over state the case, that I have seen a difference between the usefulness of bloomberg biographies and Bloomberg company profiles. The topic under discussion, though, represented the founding of companies.
