Hi John,
I am the creator of the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navarasa_by_lotus
You had a concern that this is an unpublished work. Please refer the below mentioned url for the proof that this is indeed a published work.
The ISBN is indeed valid, the book is currently available in India. It would take few more days to be found on Ebay and Amazon as a e-book.
Please let me know if you require or suggest more information on keeping this page alive.
Thanks, rajiv — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rjvkmr3 ( talk • contribs) 16:19, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
Hi John,
My intention was to give you a proof that book is being sold on Amazon like e-commerce site in India, since you had mentioned names like Amazon in your query. I think I atleast deserved few more hours before you had to delete the content, though am not new to Wikipedia this is the first time I am creating a page.
Here are the other ISBN-13 numbers assigned to the book, 9789381576847, 978-9381576847
Please let me know what you suggest next. Because I don't see a difference between the page I created with that of several other wiki pages of many other Indian books like "Five Point someone" "two states" etc.

Hi John,
I am the author of this book. The intention of creating this page was not to promote this book!!! Every word found on the ecommerce site which you referred is taken from the back cover blurb of the book for which I have the copyrights, in case you felt I just copied and pasted the verbioge.
Anyway, any further requests from me would look like am desperate for promoting and I am definetly not! I do appreciate your strong watch on the pages being created which I fully respect as I totally depend on Wikipedia for my day to day facts...
But I do not understand how other books still have pages created on Wikipedia.

Hi there. You correctly deleted the article about Torbjørn Agdestein per this: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Torbjørn_Agdestein. But now he made his debut for Brighton in the football league championship Norwegian source, which makes him notable through WP:NFOOTY.

Hi!
I am Jahmon A. Highbaugh Chief Euthenologist and Founder of Euthenology and the Heart's River Foundation. We service and develop historical and ongoing facts and ideologies of Euthenology "The Father Science" or The Science of Human Living Potential that can be found on facebook or twitter. I own all copyrights of Euthenology and information of its origin as my story tell will tell. I was having trouble with the wikipedia site at first to a friend showed me how properly to use it and then trouble came. If you would take some time to review your site you will see that I have removed all information meaning that if it didnt belong to me I would not be or hold access to codes and other information dealing with Euthenology. If you would be so kind as to reset your computers so that I can restore the site back to normal I will gladly place it correctly there this time. We have a lot of information that needs to be credited towards Euthenology and would like to regain the option of developing a relationship with wikipedian on learning this new science of human living potential. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Euthenology ( talk • contribs) 22:29, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi, you deleted the page Harry Snodgrass under G7 in June 2011. This edit summary on Harry snodgrass claims that a user's account was accessed "without permission". Is it still possible to undelete that article, or would it still qualify under another speedy criteria if you were to restore it? — KuyaBriBri Talk 15:23, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
I am a fan and have worked with Mr. Snodgrass. I updated sources to help with verification. I hope this passes all of your criteria as I am new to wikipedia and want to get more information out about the hard working people in the film business that don't normally get recognized. I will be adding more but started with Mr. Snodgrass as I remember him having a page before and know he wouldn't mind. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thedoctorbrain ( talk • contribs) 17:19, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

As stated in the page deletion reason:
"The reference URL about the Egyptian Software Engineers Association is just a blog not related to the group" so you decided to delete it, however this is not true and the URL refers to the association official website www.esea.org.eg which is officially registered by the Egyptian government and authorities.
So please undelete the page or let me know to recreate it.

Hi John,
I see you deleted the page about me. The reasons I started it is that I am linked to from the wikipedia page about company Foviance where I was CEO for 8 years and a regular speaker, writer and commentator on issues concerning customer and user experience. Also, if a search is carried out on my name, there is a page created by Foviance in their Sand box which contains some information about me which is not accurate, that appears. If I am to appear in wikipedia, I would prefer the information to be accurate and complete.
I started but did not have time to complete the page (as mentioned in my last "talk") but I am new to wikipedia and so could have made errors in any case. Am I able to submit a complete and accurate page or if not can you remove the other page?
many thanks Paul — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pblunden ( talk • contribs) 17:31, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
I wasn't trying to actually create the page. I thought that where I was editing was like a test spot where I could figure out how to format the page, etc. My apologies. I won't contest the deletion and I won't be creating the page.

While I agree that the magazine has been out of production for 50 years, an article like this increases awareness of it, thereby increasing the collector value of issues owned by those who have them. This article is therefore promoting this magazine in an effort to increase the profit gained from selling these magazines by making the public aware of its existence. 207.216.31.33 ( talk) 22:07, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

I would like to ultimately put the page back up, but I'd like to work a little more on the quality of the article and get some more information before the page goes live.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Mark Gurman, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. :- ) DCS 02:00, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Hey John!
Thank you so much for informing me about the Wikipedia regulations for submitting a new article, as I was unaware of them. The only reason all the text was copy pasted was because, considering that I work for the company, we thought we could just copy the text. However we will be re-writing everything so that the text has a neutral opinion, is educational, and not promotional.
Thank you again!

hi, The comment[2]posted under Sajeel Shahid wikipage that is being attributed to him by the author of wiki page has not been made by him at all, but rather by someone else. Sajeel left al-muhajiroun in 2002, and this is public knowledge. If you go to the information sourced No2, you will not find the name Sajeel Shahid anywhere. This comment has been made by some one else, and not Sajeel Shahid. This interview is made in england, with some Al-Muhajiorun members and Sajeel Shahid was in Pakistan in 2004 and had no relationship with al-muhajiroun as he left them in 2002.
I am the wife of Sajeel Shahid, he runs two successfull buisness in UK, pays taxes and is a wonderful father and husband, please don´t let his name be maligned, using someone else´s comment and attributing to him is a grave injustice
Also daily mirrors other article (information source 3) has no comment from Sajeel Shahid, just accusations on him. These are not made by any government body but only a newspaper to sell the news by aligning someone that has no relation to the case. If there was any truth in it how can he here in UK sine 2005 till now and have no charge against him or even a caution note by any government body.
And lastly the information source 1 by (Nick Fielding) all relying upon one point that sajeel told an arabic newspaper, which newspaper? no name!! this is not sourced information !!. Sajeel does not know any arabic in 2004,5,6,7 to talk to any arabic newspaper, again a twisted story just because he used to have a madrasa (islamic school) in Pakistan where people came to study, There were 190 students in there, how does he know who studies there, but media never asked him no interview from him just story that has been made up.
I have clarified all 3 points with you, however to post someone else comment and to attribute it to sajeel is grave injustice

Hi I just saw your delete of
user:Deepmath/Chapstick lesbian, I've had that page in my watchlist back from
around 2005 when I was more active, I'm not sure if you put tags on all the pages or only that one you mentioned in the delete summary but yeah that kinda sucks.
If you look at Special:Mypage/Whatever doing that is actually what people are meant to do per policy, in the Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Deepmath/Chemistry 101 you state that they are "stale" but that is not a reason for deletion so far as I know? Is user:Deepmath/Chapstick lesbian (backup) a copy of the same article?
I do think it's cool how you left it to run for quite a while apparently though, I'm surprised at how few spoke up which is a bit depressing. If you look at the lipstick lesbian article (which you might also notice is insanely small compared to how popular a term it is, something I think can be put to the gender gap (via WP:CSB, WP:FEM and Wikipedia:WikiProject Gender Studies)) you might see why, it's a pretty famous quote by Ellen Degenres [1] and was one of those things I watchlisted meaning to help out editing it to improve but just never got around to it, like probably a lot of people:

Dear JohnCD,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name
HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Obar -- Jaobar ( talk) 07:30, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi John I've been working quite hard over the past week or so in getting the entry for author Jude Calvert-Toulmin into an acceptable Wikipedia format, specifically around tightening up the content (whoever made the first attempt was way too casual in inclusions and tone) and providing sources verifying Jude Calvert-Toulmin's standing as an author. I believe/hoped that I was making decent headway in introducing articles and information to that end, and would greatly appreciate the opportunity to complete this. Jude Calvert-Toulmin is undeniably not a mainstream author, but as I first came to Wikipedia to learn more about her after reading several of her magazine articles a few years back, I believe I can demonstrate that she is a writer of note.

Noticed that the "Oxford Cup" was deleted for Copyright Infringement. Could you provide any additional information on how the content can be changed so as not to infringe on any copyrights? As explained in the Talk section of that page, the information is public knowledge and the narrative which was previously pasted was recreated with original content.
Also... you mention establishing notability. But the list itself is notable as the honorees include a former Canadian Prime Minister, a former Supreme Court Justice, two current U.S. Senators, two NASA astronauts, and a bevy of other well-known personalities. How do you build notability for an award, when the award itself is meant to highlight the things that someone has done which could be considered as such?

Hi John,
I just noticed that the Truveris page on Wiki was deleted. I am assuming it was categorized as speedy deletion though it didn't say clearly.
I would like to make a case for its re-instation.
- Truveris is an disruptive technology company backed by well known venture investors and has been written about in various media outlets. - These articles may not have been posted on the Wiki page but wanted to draw your attention to them if Notability was the reason it was deleted. http://www.xconomy.com/new-york/2011/11/01/truveris-seeks-the-truth-in-pharmacy-benefit-claims/ http://www.dailydisruption.com/2011/10/disruptor-of-the-day-trueveris-technology-to-open-the-black-box-of-drug-pricing/ http://finance.yahoo.com/news/truveris-present-ubs-22nd-annual-140000374.html http://www.marketwatch.com/story/truveris-introduces-trubid-to-cut-prescription-drug-costs-2012-01-19
If the reason was not Notability, please do let me know.

Hi John,
I have made edits to the page and wanted to point out that Truveris was invited to 2 very prestigious events in the financial/healthcare community. One is the UBS 22nd Annual Global Healthcare Services conference where Truveris was a speaker among many other publicly recognized companies such as Wellpoint, HCA, Weight Watchers, etc. There is notability here in that this company was invited alongside these other major companies to present to a large audience and would be considered in the same league. The other event was hosted by Barclays with a written profile on Truveris as part of their analyst report. This alongside independent articles in Xconomy and the Daily Disruption blog out there should make the case for notability. I hope these satisfy the notability requirements. I know you are very busy and appreciate you re-reviewing this material. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.74.152.202 ( talk) 14:46, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your response to me John. I am wondering if, since all my edits were deleted, you can remove the conflict of interest note? Also, one of the edits that was deleted was a photograph I tried to upload. I now have some email from the photographer and a different photograph, and I wonder if I can at least upload that now? I tried to send the photographer's email to permissions-enwikimedia.org but my email program told me that was not a valid address!! I guess I just don't know how to do any of this correctly!! I do see your point on the edits by the way. And I want to edit the page just to correct some things that are no longer true about the festival. So I am going to do what you suggested, and post the edits on the talk page of the Mendocino Music Festival. May I ask you whether you think it ok for me to list the performers for the 2012 season and the works? I did that because I used the Oregon Shakespeare Festival page as an example, and I saw that they had listed their works for 2012. May I do that do you think, without any superlatives and adjectives??? I really appreciate your help. I am new to all this! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mendokitties ( talk • contribs) 17:53, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi John, I am a very new wiki user and would appreciate some mentoring so that I dont stuff up any edits! I want to update the Freakyclown page, as I found his keynote very informative at a recent conference. Obviously the page is a mess currently and those edits which have been done are lacking in academic rigor, but I feel that there is room for improvement and that the subject matter is of note especially to kids starting out on a career in IT and I am willing to spend some time on this.

This is a response from John K. Grandy. The deletion of the article on the theory of DNA consciousness has been brought to my attention by a colleague.
I have read these comments and I have few things that I would like to say. First and foremost, I am applauded by the tone of some of these comments, which range from rude to unfounded fringe theories in their own right. Was this supposed to be an intellectual discussion or a feces throwing competition between lower primates? Many of the “experts” state that this theory is nonsense but provide no scientific proof themselves. This is truly disturbing if this is the method in which Wikipedia articles emerge.
Secondly, this is not some fringe theory! I have invested almost eight years of my life researching this. The scientific references are not “camouflage” but rather scientific validation of some of the themes of my theory. In fact I can provide many more. As far as the theory is concerned, it is actually evolving into a science and I have a chapter on DNA consciousness coming out in a book in about a year when the publication and printing phase is completed to prove this.
Third, I read the other tread where my profession is a reason to dispute the validity of the theory. Are you serious? Completely irrelevant! If these so call “wiki experts” did any serious investigation they would know that in addition to being a PA, which is how I make my living, that I also hold a master’s degree. I did cancer research and studied the DNA molecule astutely for many years. I probably know more about DNA than most doctors. Anthropology is gravitating toward genetics in many areas, as is medicine. So it should not be unusual for a PA, MD, or RN discussing DNA. In addition, Albert Einstein worked as a patent officer while working independently on the theory of relativity. This is an example and I am not trying to imply that I am Albert Einstein. I know one of your so called experts will peevishly retort “well you are not Albert Einstein”, but I will save you the trouble. Many people work on other intellectual pursuits that may seem incompatible with their job. As far as writing for a anthropology encyclopedia or other “dubious” journals, these are all peer reviewed and in general are considered more reputable than the Wikipedia free encyclopedia.
Fourth, my colleague put a lot of time into posting this article and waited almost seven months to see the fruits of his labor. Mostly, because he believed in this work and thought it noteworthy for a Wikipedia article and the general public. Ultimately, this is the “thank you” that he received for his hard work.
Finally, this all came about as the author of the “Consciousness” article deleted the link that was made to the “also see section”. What line of royalty did you descend from and who do you think you are? Talk about being an elitist! Do you believe that you are part of the illumanati and solely in charge of the worldwide knowledge? Your article contains views of consciousness that are considered nonsense by many thinkers in the field. For example, many consider dualism and the OrchOR unsustainable. However, that information is vital to anyone who is researching these theories.
The fact of the matter is that DNA consciousness is not some new fringe theory and has been around for almost 8 years. It has been mentioned in some newer articles. I have also done presentations at many conferences in the USA and Europe, and received some good feedback. There are those who are unconvinced, but that is the point of a theory. There are many theories on Wikipedia that are no longer accepted but it is important to have that information available for research. Because I have been the only one to write articles about this it is exceedingly hard to find information on it and this is exactly why you should not delete the article! It should be put back up and you can put things on it that say “references are needed” or “other references are needed”. I have seen these on other Wikipedia article “please help improve this article”. I think this topic is entitled to the same process. In short, I believe this topic is entitled to be treated fairly.
I would also like to add that I have made donations to wikipedia in the past.

i understand that there is a mention of a punk band from birmingham "cracked actors" but they were short lived and where split a long time before our founding members thought of using the name for our band.....
As we have been going as a band from 1999 and are still going strong, i wished to start an article to show our history as a band on wiki.
can you suggest how i can get our band on here, as i have lots of stories to tell....

Hi John CD!
The article on Santosh Sharma was redirected to "Next What's In" by you based on a discussion by the other wikipedia editors. The editors stated that if there is any other reference other than the book then only it deserves to be a separte article. This was not in line with the ((WP:GNG)) guidelines as there was significant coverage of Santosh Sharma in reliable sources.
Still i am provideing few new references to support that Santosh Sharma deserves a separate article. Kindly have a look at them and reinstate the article.

Hey mate,
I'm just sending you a message because I was searching for Formula Amaroli and then found the (recently I think) deleted article.
Although the article says "Formula Amaroli World Cup", that is not only the championship but also the name of the mod. A reference for this mod is an important one about online gaming/sim racing. Many people play with these cars on rfactor, and many leagues use it for championships etc.
One example is the Race 2 Play website, a huge hub of sim racing:
http://www.race2play.com/sim/show_run_class/183#cars
You can see from the rfactor central page (only one of the download sources) there are 1888 rating votes rating Formula Amaroli a 369/500 mod.
http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=Armaroli%20WorldCup
You can also find referenced download links for the mod in other places such as:
http://www.racesimulations.com/RFACTOR/AWC/downloads/776.html
And actually many independent reviews of the mod:
http://www.virtualr.net/formula-armaroli-for-rfactor-released
And if you just search on youtube you'll find lots of videos from people playing the mod, including some more recent ones (since the mod was released in 2006), like this one (e.g.):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnOshHawa1k
Anyway, I have nothing to do with them and it's not my article. But I was researching it to find more about it and Wikipedia was the natural place to go; I was quite chocked to find it deleted.

NOw that you are back, could you possibly help me? I have put some suggested edits on the Mendocino talk page, as well as my questions on how to clear up all the comments on the page, and I have not heard from anyone, but you did tell me sometimes it takes several weeks to hear back..But now that you are back, would you please help me get things fixed? I wanted to add the note you see on the talk page, and also to take out some things in the main body that are no longer correct, and also add a photo..I did send an email to the page about photos but did not hear back, so maybe I messed that up. I have a new photo which does not contain a copyright logo and the photographer has sent me a note saying I can use it and that is what I sent on...I just don't seem too good at this!!

The subject is a very difficult one to source good references and citations for, but I am trying :-). Good written material and standard web research do not provide an accurate overview of the subject and that is what I am trying to do on wikipedia (I am not acomplete novice I have originated and edited other pages). If you do not knbowe about the subject it is about a process/product that is safer and more environmentally friendly tha existing high explosive methods of doing the same thing. If you are unable to reinstate then I would appreciate a sandbox version otherwisew all the contributions to date are lost! Thanks for youir help, Steve. Stevenxlead ( talk) 08:32, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your help! Please do post a note to see if anyone would have an interested in creating the content for Lean Engineering. Even though there is a distinction, the people that may have an interest may be same as Lean Manufacturing...They could also be the ones who could explain the distinction most effectively. If you do a web search on Lean Engineering there are other firms that talk about it (Ketiv in California for one), as well as, MIT.

Hi John,
I am the creator of the page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navarasa_by_lotus
You had a concern that this is an unpublished work. Please refer the below mentioned url for the proof that this is indeed a published work.
The ISBN is indeed valid, the book is currently available in India. It would take few more days to be found on Ebay and Amazon as a e-book.
Please let me know if you require or suggest more information on keeping this page alive.

Hi John,
My intention was to give you a proof that book is being sold on Amazon like e-commerce site in India, since you had mentioned names like Amazon in your query. I think I atleast deserved few more hours before you had to delete the content, though am not new to Wikipedia this is the first time I am creating a page.
Here are the other ISBN-13 numbers assigned to the book, 9789381576847, 978-9381576847
Please let me know what you suggest next. Because I don't see a difference between the page I created with that of several other wiki pages of many other Indian books like "Five Point someone" "two states" etc.

Hi John,
I am the author of this book. The intention of creating this page was not to promote this book!!! Every word found on the ecommerce site which you referred is taken from the back cover blurb of the book for which I have the copyrights, in case you felt I just copied and pasted the verbioge.
Anyway, any further requests from me would look like am desperate for promoting and I am definetly not! I do appreciate your strong watch on the pages being created which I fully respect as I totally depend on Wikipedia for my day to day facts...
But I do not understand how other books still have pages created on Wikipedia.

We service and develop historical and ongoing facts and ideologies of Euthenology "The Father Science" or The Science of Human Living Potential that can be found on facebook or twitter. I own all copyrights of Euthenology and information of its origin as my story tell will tell. I was having trouble with the wikipedia site at first to a friend showed me how properly to use it and then trouble came. If you would take some time to review your site you will see that I have removed all information meaning that if it didnt belong to me I would not be or hold access to codes and other information dealing with Euthenology. If you would be so kind as to reset your computers so that I can restore the site back to normal I will gladly place it correctly there this time.

Hi John,
I see you deleted the page about me. The reasons I started it is that I am linked to from the wikipedia page about company Foviance where I was CEO for 8 years and a regular speaker, writer and commentator on issues concerning customer and user experience. Also, if a search is carried out on my name, there is a page created by Foviance in their Sand box which contains some information about me which is not accurate, that appears. If I am to appear in wikipedia, I would prefer the information to be accurate and complete.
I started but did not have time to complete the page (as mentioned in my last "talk") but I am new to wikipedia and so could have made errors in any case. Am I able to submit a complete and accurate page or if not can you remove the other page?

While I agree that the magazine has been out of production for 50 years, an article like this increases awareness of it, thereby increasing the collector value of issues owned by those who have them.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Mark Gurman, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. :- ) DCS 02:00, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

Thank you so much for informing me about the Wikipedia regulations for submitting a new article, as I was unaware of them. The only reason all the text was copy pasted was because, considering that I work for the company, we thought we could just copy the text. However we will be re-writing everything so that the text has a neutral opinion, is educational, and not promotional.

hi, The comment[2]posted under Sajeel Shahid wikipage that is being attributed to him by the author of wiki page has not been made by him at all, but rather by someone else. Sajeel left al-muhajiroun in 2002, and this is public knowledge. If you go to the information sourced No2, you will not find the name Sajeel Shahid anywhere. This comment has been made by some one else, and not Sajeel Shahid. This interview is made in england, with some Al-Muhajiorun members and Sajeel Shahid was in Pakistan in 2004 and had no relationship with al-muhajiroun as he left them in 2002.
I am the wife of Sajeel Shahid, he runs two successfull buisness in UK, pays taxes and is a wonderful father and husband, please don´t let his name be maligned, using someone else´s comment and attributing to him is a grave injustice
Also daily mirrors other article (information source 3) has no comment from Sajeel Shahid, just accusations on him. These are not made by any government body but only a newspaper to sell the news by aligning someone that has no relation to the case. If there was any truth in it how can he here in UK sine 2005 till now and have no charge against him or even a caution note by any government body.
And lastly the information source 1 by (Nick Fielding) all relying upon one point that sajeel told an arabic newspaper, which newspaper? no name!! this is not sourced information !!. Sajeel does not know any arabic in 2004,5,6,7 to talk to any arabic newspaper, again a twisted story just because he used to have a madrasa (islamic school) in Pakistan where people came to study, There were 190 students in there, how does he know who studies there, but media never asked him no interview from him just story that has been made up.
I have clarified all 3 points with you, however to post someone else comment and to attribute it to sajeel is grave injustice

Hi I just saw your delete of
user:Deepmath/Chapstick lesbian, I've had that page in my watchlist back from
around 2005 when I was more active, I'm not sure if you put tags on all the pages or only that one you mentioned in the delete summary but yeah that kinda sucks.
If you look at Special:Mypage/Whatever doing that is actually what people are meant to do per policy, in the Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Deepmath/Chemistry 101 you state that they are "stale" but that is not a reason for deletion so far as I know? Is user:Deepmath/Chapstick lesbian (backup) a copy of the same article?
I do think it's cool how you left it to run for quite a while apparently though, I'm surprised at how few spoke up which is a bit depressing. If you look at the lipstick lesbian article (which you might also notice is insanely small compared to how popular a term it is, something I think can be put to the gender gap (via WP:CSB, WP:FEM and Wikipedia:WikiProject Gender Studies)) you might see why, it's a pretty famous quote by Ellen Degenres [1] and was one of those things I watchlisted meaning to help out editing it to improve but just never got around to it, like probably a lot of people:

Dear JohnCD,
My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
So a few things about the interviews:
Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name
HERE instead.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.
Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Obar -- Jaobar ( talk) 07:30, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi John I've been working quite hard over the past week or so in getting the entry for author Jude Calvert-Toulmin into an acceptable Wikipedia format, specifically around tightening up the content (whoever made the first attempt was way too casual in inclusions and tone) and providing sources verifying Jude Calvert-Toulmin's standing as an author. I believe/hoped that I was making decent headway in introducing articles and information to that end, and would greatly appreciate the opportunity to complete this. Jude Calvert-Toulmin is undeniably not a mainstream author, but as I first came to Wikipedia to learn more about her after reading several of her magazine articles a few years back, I believe I can demonstrate that she is a writer of note. Thanks for the opportunity to "talk"! Kim Kimmy L-F ( talk) 13:28, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi John - Just noticed that you've prodded this on the 7th (it was originally a BLP prod on the 27/1). Looking at the talk page of the author/subject, it seems he's been trying for the best part of a year to get his page up (despite being clearly non-notable with one educational film and one catalog shoot to his CV). This time appears to be go-around #4 - time for a salting? Advice/help appreciated. Cheers! Plutonium27 ( talk) 01:11, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Noticed that the "Oxford Cup" was deleted for Copyright Infringement. Could you provide any additional information on how the content can be changed so as not to infringe on any copyrights? As explained in the Talk section of that page, the information is public knowledge and the narrative which was previously pasted was recreated with original content.
Also... you mention establishing notability. But the list itself is notable as the honorees include a former Canadian Prime Minister, a former Supreme Court Justice, two current U.S. Senators, two NASA astronauts, and a bevy of other well-known personalities. How do you build notability for an award, when the award itself is meant to highlight the things that someone has done which could be considered as such?
I appreciate you pointing me to the "First Article" page, btw.

Hi John,
I just noticed that the Truveris page on Wiki was deleted. I am assuming it was categorized as speedy deletion though it didn't say clearly.
I would like to make a case for its re-instation.
- Truveris is an disruptive technology company backed by well known venture investors and has been written about in various media outlets. - These articles may not have been posted on the Wiki page but wanted to draw your attention to them if Notability was the reason it was deleted. http://www.xconomy.com/new-york/2011/11/01/truveris-seeks-the-truth-in-pharmacy-benefit-claims/ http://www.dailydisruption.com/2011/10/disruptor-of-the-day-trueveris-technology-to-open-the-black-box-of-drug-pricing/ http://finance.yahoo.com/news/truveris-present-ubs-22nd-annual-140000374.html http://www.marketwatch.com/story/truveris-introduces-trubid-to-cut-prescription-drug-costs-2012-01-19

Hi John,
I have made edits to the page and wanted to point out that Truveris was invited to 2 very prestigious events in the financial/healthcare community. One is the UBS 22nd Annual Global Healthcare Services conference where Truveris was a speaker among many other publicly recognized companies such as Wellpoint, HCA, Weight Watchers, etc. There is notability here in that this company was invited alongside these other major companies to present to a large audience and would be considered in the same league. The other event was hosted by Barclays with a written profile on Truveris as part of their analyst report. This alongside independent articles in Xconomy and the Daily Disruption blog out there should make the case for notability. I hope these satisfy the notability requirements. I know you are very busy and appreciate you re-reviewing this material. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.74.152.202 ( talk) 14:46, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your response to me John. I am wondering if, since all my edits were deleted, you can remove the conflict of interest note? Also, one of the edits that was deleted was a photograph I tried to upload. I now have some email from the photographer and a different photograph, and I wonder if I can at least upload that now? I tried to send the photographer's email to permissions-enwikimedia.org but my email program told me that was not a valid address!! I guess I just don't know how to do any of this correctly!! I do see your point on the edits by the way. And I want to edit the page just to correct some things that are no longer true about the festival. So I am going to do what you suggested, and post the edits on the talk page of the Mendocino Music Festival. May I ask you whether you think it ok for me to list the performers for the 2012 season and the works? I did that because I used the Oregon Shakespeare Festival page as an example, and I saw that they had listed their works for 2012. May I do that do you think, without any superlatives and adjectives??? I really appreciate your help. I am new to all this! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mendokitties ( talk • contribs) 17:53, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

This is a response from John K. Grandy. The deletion of the article on the theory of DNA consciousness has been brought to my attention by a colleague.
I have read these comments and I have few things that I would like to say. First and foremost, I am applauded by the tone of some of these comments, which range from rude to unfounded fringe theories in their own right. Was this supposed to be an intellectual discussion or a feces throwing competition between lower primates? Many of the “experts” state that this theory is nonsense but provide no scientific proof themselves. This is truly disturbing if this is the method in which Wikipedia articles emerge.
Secondly, this is not some fringe theory! I have invested almost eight years of my life researching this. The scientific references are not “camouflage” but rather scientific validation of some of the themes of my theory. In fact I can provide many more. As far as the theory is concerned, it is actually evolving into a science and I have a chapter on DNA consciousness coming out in a book in about a year when the publication and printing phase is completed to prove this.
Third, I read the other tread where my profession is a reason to dispute the validity of the theory. Are you serious? Completely irrelevant! If these so call “wiki experts” did any serious investigation they would know that in addition to being a PA, which is how I make my living, that I also hold a master’s degree. I did cancer research and studied the DNA molecule astutely for many years. I probably know more about DNA than most doctors. Anthropology is gravitating toward genetics in many areas, as is medicine. So it should not be unusual for a PA, MD, or RN discussing DNA. In addition, Albert Einstein worked as a patent officer while working independently on the theory of relativity. This is an example and I am not trying to imply that I am Albert Einstein. I know one of your so called experts will peevishly retort “well you are not Albert Einstein”, but I will save you the trouble. Many people work on other intellectual pursuits that may seem incompatible with their job. As far as writing for a anthropology encyclopedia or other “dubious” journals, these are all peer reviewed and in general are considered more reputable than the Wikipedia free encyclopedia.
Fourth, my colleague put a lot of time into posting this article and waited almost seven months to see the fruits of his labor. Mostly, because he believed in this work and thought it noteworthy for a Wikipedia article and the general public. Ultimately, this is the “thank you” that he received for his hard work.
Finally, this all came about as the author of the “Consciousness” article deleted the link that was made to the “also see section”. What line of royalty did you descend from and who do you think you are? Talk about being an elitist! Do you believe that you are part of the illumanati and solely in charge of the worldwide knowledge? Your article contains views of consciousness that are considered nonsense by many thinkers in the field. For example, many consider dualism and the OrchOR unsustainable. However, that information is vital to anyone who is researching these theories.
The fact of the matter is that DNA consciousness is not some new fringe theory and has been around for almost 8 years. It has been mentioned in some newer articles. I have also done presentations at many conferences in the USA and Europe, and received some good feedback. There are those who are unconvinced, but that is the point of a theory. There are many theories on Wikipedia that are no longer accepted but it is important to have that information available for research. Because I have been the only one to write articles about this it is exceedingly hard to find information on it and this is exactly why you should not delete the article! It should be put back up and you can put things on it that say “references are needed” or “other references are needed”. I have seen these on other Wikipedia article “please help improve this article”. I think this topic is entitled to the same process. In short, I believe this topic is entitled to be treated fairly.
I would also like to add that I have made donations to wikipedia in the past.

i understand that there is a mention of a punk band from birmingham "cracked actors" but they were short lived and where split a long time before our founding members thought of using the name for our band.....
As we have been going as a band from 1999 and are still going strong, i wished to start an article to show our history as a band on wiki.
can you suggest how i can get our band on here, as i have lots of stories to tell....

Hi John CD!
The article on Santosh Sharma was redirected to "Next What's In" by you based on a discussion by the other wikipedia editors. The editors stated that if there is any other reference other than the book then only it deserves to be a separte article. This was not in line with the ((WP:GNG)) guidelines as there was significant coverage of Santosh Sharma in reliable sources.
Still i am provideing few new references to support that Santosh Sharma deserves a separate article. Kindly have a look at them and reinstate the article.

Yes but there is no other political party like BWP so really I am trying to explain nationalist socialism (a form of centrism) through the party. Maybe making a page on nationalist socialism. please note nationalist socialism has no connection to national socialism as nationalist and national have totally different meanings. I do not see the point why articles are just speedy deleted instead of the author being given "a notice to improve." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joeb20122012 ( talk • contribs) 07:22, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

Hey mate,
I'm just sending you a message because I was searching for Formula Amaroli and then found the (recently I think) deleted article.
Although the article says "Formula Amaroli World Cup", that is not only the championship but also the name of the mod. A reference for this mod is an important one about online gaming/sim racing. Many people play with these cars on rfactor, and many leagues use it for championships etc.
One example is the Race 2 Play website, a huge hub of sim racing:
http://www.race2play.com/sim/show_run_class/183#cars
You can see from the rfactor central page (only one of the download sources) there are 1888 rating votes rating Formula Amaroli a 369/500 mod.
http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=Armaroli%20WorldCup
You can also find referenced download links for the mod in other places such as:
http://www.racesimulations.com/RFACTOR/AWC/downloads/776.html
And actually many independent reviews of the mod:
http://www.virtualr.net/formula-armaroli-for-rfactor-released
And if you just search on youtube you'll find lots of videos from people playing the mod, including some more recent ones (since the mod was released in 2006), like this one (e.g.):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnOshHawa1k
Anyway, I have nothing to do with them and it's not my article. But I was researching it to find more about it and Wikipedia was the natural place to go; I was quite chocked to find it deleted.

To judge from the edit summary, this did not do what you thought it was doing. JamesBWatson ( talk) 14:29, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Blah, I officially give up trying to figure speedy deletion out. :-) ~dee( talk?) 15:16, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi there! You were kind enough to help me last month re the Mendocino Music festival page, and you suggested I write to Orange Mike to see if he had time to help me get this all sorted out, and I did, but I have not heard from him. NOw that you are back, could you possibly help me? I have put some suggested edits on the Mendocino talk page, as well as my questions on how to clear up all the comments on the page, and I have not heard from anyone, but you did tell me sometimes it takes several weeks to hear back..But now that you are back, would you please help me get things fixed? I wanted to add the note you see on the talk page, and also to take out some things in the main body that are no longer correct, and also add a photo..I did send an email to the page about photos but did not hear back, so maybe I messed that up. I have a new photo which does not contain a copyright logo and the photographer has sent me a note saying I can use it and that is what I sent on...I just don't seem too good at this!! Anyway, I did want to mention that since the festival is run by volunteers, I can't find a non-biased person to write anything, but I can learn to write properly I think with some help...??
Thanks very very much Andria ( Mendokitties ( talk) 21:23, 1 April 2012 (UTC))
Hi John,
Thanks for your response, I understand the need for independent articles or media coverage, and have found an index of all the neutral paper publications the company has received:
http://www.bellabellissima.co.uk/Press%20Articles/
Notably they have received press from: The Daily Mail, Elle, Loaded, Grazia, Style, Telegraph, Toni & Guy, Stella, and Vogue.
Would this be enough coverage to grant 'userfy status', so that i could write the article properly?
Many Thanks,
Alex — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vstudent ( talk • contribs) 21:26, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

per Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Don't stuff beans up your nose. Armbrust, B.Ed. Let's talk about my edits? 21:38, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi John, I would appreciate you reinstating the above page which I originated and was improving as time allowed, as well as going through the formal approval process. I am not sure as to the reasons for deletion (I was trying to correct the matters already highlighted to me) but would politely (nicely) ask for a stay pof execution!. The subject is a very difficult one to source good references and citations for, but I am trying :-). Good written material and standard web research do not provide an accurate overview of the subject and that is what I am trying to do on wikipedia (I am not acomplete novice I have originated and edited other pages). If you do not knbowe about the subject it is about a process/product that is safer and more environmentally friendly tha existing high explosive methods of doing the same thing. If you are unable to reinstate then I would appreciate a sandbox version otherwisew all the contributions to date are lost! Thanks for youir help, Steve. Stevenxlead ( talk) 08:32, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your help! Please do post a note to see if anyone would have an interested in creating the content for Lean Engineering. Even though there is a distinction, the people that may have an interest may be same as Lean Manufacturing...They could also be the ones who could explain the distinction most effectively. If you do a web search on Lean Engineering there are other firms that talk about it (Ketiv in California for one), as well as, MIT.

Why is my problem with Gavin Gamez is deleted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Njhernblom18 ( talk • contribs) 19:57, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
Thank you but this is exactly what I tried to do .. clicked on the word "talk" after the username here -> Biruitorul (talk) but it does not work to add a message to the bottom of the user's talk page as I am doing with you. I guess he restricted this possibility and I cannot talk to him. I have posted a message on his page but using some other feature that it is not very appropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dezvoltaredurabila ( talk • contribs) 20:30, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
