Ritchie,
You state that G11 "is only for articles that have fundamental problems and where none of the content is at all salvageable".
Not true at all. G11 applies for articles that need to be fundamentally rewritten! The last HP article I edited was reduced from 10k to about 600 charcters, due to all of the review/spam/market speak in it. That is a fundamental rewrite, to say the least. The articles I tagged are much the same.
You also wrote that "Since the articles have at least some content cited to reliable sources, I don't think in good conscience we can speedy delete them.".
I am quite able to write a Wikipedia article with tonnes of links to reliable sources, yet have it 100% nonsense or spam. Reliable sources have absolutely nothing to do with whether or not G11 applies.
I urge you to re-read the two articles I sited -- and then when doing so ponder something.
"Is this what I'd read on the company's homepage to sell their product? Is this what a salesman would send me as marketing material?"
These HP articles reference tonnes of reviews for the products. One of the pages is just market speak, one sentence after another.
Wikipedia is not a center for spam, no matter how well crafted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bbarnett ( talk • contribs) 13:17, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
Hi Ritchie, Thanks for doing my editor review. I'll definitely take into account what you said. Just to let you know, I have created the Nanoc article and previously copyedited several pages.

Good work with expanding Phil's article. I had it on my list of stuff to do after writing Thin Lizzy, but it was going to be a long time until I got round to it.

Hi Ritchie, You recently contested a speedy-nomination by me. No worries, albeit I don't understand your rationale.
So what if I am a member of a notable band? That band might be notable but that doesn't automatically mean everybody associated with it must be equally remarkable, or does it?

Ritchie,
When a user searches WIKI for "Aware Electronics" he/she is shown http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aware_Electronics which is a Taiwanese electronics manufacturer. All their ref. link to their website.
Aware Electronics Corp. was incorporated in 1989, 16 years before the above mentioned company.
Aware Electronics Corp. is a USA company.
When potential customers or interested parties search WIKI, they might get the impression we are a Taiwanese company.
Either remove the above page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aware_Electronics or allow us to include info. about Aware Electronics Corp. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quantum side ( talk • contribs) 17:39, 17 December 2012 (UTC) Quantum side ( talk) 18:56, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

I wrote an article for this band, but it was declined. Here are some more sources:

http://www.outernetweb.com/chicagofest/performers/thekind/index.html
http://www.numerogroup.com/catalog_detail.php?uid=01466
There is another artist, Dugan McNeill, that is on Wikipedia with less information than what I wrote for The Kind.
Also, after my last posting to you, I was blocked for a few months. I have no idea why. What did I submit that made this happen? I was simply sending information about this band from Chicago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.71.79.124 ( talk) 01:53, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi Ritchie333. I think you removed the A7 CSD tag at Oxagile LLC based on a common misconception that A7 pertains to sourcing. In fact it pertains to claims of significance. From the guideline:

Please do not remove the CSD tags I put on the Kris kourtis article. The exact same article was up 7 days ago with all this same info, which was speedily deleted.

Being mentioned in a source does not show notability, why is A7 not appropriate? Darkness Shines ( talk) 12:09, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi. You removed the A7 tag from this article because "A7 does not apply to television shows". I'm aware that A7 doesn't apply to television shows. This article is incorrectly categorized as a TV show in an effort to make it look legit. I actually looked up what this "show" supposedly is (I tend to do that before I slap on deletion tags). It's some kind of animated web series made at goanimate.com - a site where anyone can make videos for free. It's not a real television series nor is it a notable web series. This can also be gleaned from the fact that there is no such thing as a Samuel Brice Channel. That's some kid's YouTube channel, presumably the user who created this article. If this isn't web content, what is it? Pinkadelica ♣ 15:42, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

You've reverted the speedy at JetNEXUS Solutions, with the edit summary "Company is mentioned in two reliable sources. Try WP:AfD". The two sources on the page are a company press release and a product review in a non-notable blog: not WP:RS. It's been speedied three times (and salted) at JetNEXUS, and speedied once at JetNEXUS Ltd, after creation less than an hour ago by Special:Contributions/Jetnexus1. Is it really essential to AFD this? It makes no assertion of notability, and hasn't got a prayer of making it through AFD. Thanks, Altered Walter ( talk) 16:41, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi Richie, you recently declined my submission of the Kensington Swan article due to the firm not being notable. I was just basing this page on the fact that other New Zealand firms of similar notably to Kensington Swan are already on Wikipedis, for example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell_mcveagh http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapman_Tripp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_Gully http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson_Grierson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddle_Findlay

For lots of digging through Hansard - a hefty task - to find citations for M11 link road protest, consequently helping it get to good article status. — Hex (❝?!❞) 08:52, 16 January 2013 (UTC) |
Hello again. As the base image is now public domain, do you think we could get a larger (preferably much larger!) version of File:M11 link road protest map.png? Cheers, — Hex (❝?!❞) 10:59, 16 January 2013 (UTC).
It runs approximately every week. The last time it ran on the UKRD page was January 6, and it's supposed to run approximately every week. It used to run on Sundays. Also, it puts articles in alphabetical order (except those that have appeared on the Main Page as a TFA or DYK; those are set to chronological order) so I'm not sure if it it will catch the fact that you put M11 link road protest in the wrong location when it does run again.

Hello Ritchie, I have completed your AfD closer you forgot to remove the AfD template from the article itself & there was an error in deletion discussion {{subst:Afd top}} goes above the heading. Please remember for future reference, Regards ★☆ DUCKISJAMMMY☆★ 15:17, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
I've dePRODed Chemical Records ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), because it's already been tried (as noted in my edit summary). Cheers. -- Trevj ( talk) 13:48, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
Please do not remove the CSD tags I put on the Kris kourtis article. The exact same article was up 7 days ago with all this same info, which was speedily deleted. The artist is non-notable (why there's no citations), and the author is simply creating the page for publicity. Grammarxxx ( What'd I do this time?) 18:48, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Billy Ternent, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page West End ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Being mentioned in a source does not show notability, why is A7 not appropriate? Darkness Shines ( talk) 12:09, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
Hi. You removed the A7 tag from this article because "A7 does not apply to television shows". I'm aware that A7 doesn't apply to television shows. This article is incorrectly categorized as a TV show in an effort to make it look legit. I actually looked up what this "show" supposedly is (I tend to do that before I slap on deletion tags). It's some kind of animated web series made at goanimate.com - a site where anyone can make videos for free. It's not a real television series nor is it a notable web series. This can also be gleaned from the fact that there is no such thing as a Samuel Brice Channel. That's some kid's YouTube channel, presumably the user who created this article. If this isn't web content, what is it? Pinkadelica ♣ 15:42, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

You've reverted the speedy at JetNEXUS Solutions, with the edit summary "Company is mentioned in two reliable sources. Try WP:AfD". The two sources on the page are a company press release and a product review in a non-notable blog: not WP:RS. It's been speedied three times (and salted) at JetNEXUS, and speedied once at JetNEXUS Ltd, after creation less than an hour ago by Special:Contributions/Jetnexus1. Is it really essential to AFD this? It makes no assertion of notability, and hasn't got a prayer of making it through AFD. Thanks, Altered Walter ( talk) 16:41, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

Some questions have been raised at User talk:Drmies#Question. Uncle G ( talk) 10:32, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
I'll just give my 2 cents here, on your 3 examples. Nr. 1 is at AfD , and rightly so. If Nr. 2 had been tagged with db-corp, I for one would have denied the speedy (and recommended AfD). And Nr.3....I think with us old coots, this is as much an affair of the heart (THE BEATLES!) as anything else, so nobody cares if it is reliably sourced ;). Just my take on this. Cheers and happy editing. Lectonar ( talk) 14:50, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

The version of the article I tagged looked little more than a spam article for a non-notable company. Users should either make use of the article incubator, or their own user spaces before creating something in article space that is unsuitable for prime time. -- Scjessey ( talk) 18:15, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your thoughtful explanation of how I could have better tagged Purple Saturn Day. Though you were constructively criticizing my work, I learned from what you had to say and will implement your advice in the future. Thanks again for your work!

Right! Stop that! It's far too silly! Don't take this too seriously. Another user just wants you to know something you said crosses their boundaries of sensibility. |

Hi Richie, you recently declined my submission of the Kensington Swan article due to the firm not being notable. I was just basing this page on the fact that other New Zealand firms of similar notably to Kensington Swan are already on Wikipedis, for example:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell_mcveagh http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapman_Tripp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_Gully http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simpson_Grierson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddle_Findlay
I was wondering if you could explain why they have been accepted but mine has not? Or point out what information they have which makes them notable enough? Thanks Hmn22 ( talk) 20:04, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello, thank you for looking over my article. As i am the creator of this film everything is as reliable as it most possibly can be. This is a film that i am creating for my Alevel Media studies class and i need this as part of the evidence. I personal believe that i meet the minimum requirements for an article like this. Could you please reconsider accepting my article. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/The_Invention_of_Magic,_and_the_Light_Bulb
Thank you,

For lots of digging through Hansard - a hefty task - to find citations for M11 link road protest, consequently helping it get to good article status. — Hex (❝?!❞) 08:52, 16 January 2013 (UTC) |
Hello again. As the base image is now public domain, do you think we could get a larger (preferably much larger!) version of File:M11 link road protest map.png? Cheers, — Hex (❝?!❞) 10:59, 16 January 2013 (UTC).
It runs approximately every week. The last time it ran on the UKRD page was January 6, and it's supposed to run approximately every week. It used to run on Sundays. Also, it puts articles in alphabetical order (except those that have appeared on the Main Page as a TFA or DYK; those are set to chronological order) so I'm not sure if it it will catch the fact that you put M11 link road protest in the wrong location when it does run again.

Could you please take a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk#Wikipedia talk: Articles for creation/Vic329? I was one of the people Vic329 spoke with in the IRC help channel, and since he ended that conversation by calling the helpers a "Kafkaesque elite" bent on rejecting his submission, I doubt he'd be all that happy if I were the one to reply to his Help Desk question.

can't you be neutral? Look at the edits and the discussions. There was consensus for quite a time. He is ignoring this consensus and just pushing his point of viwe...

Thanks again for a great review. Sorry, I was totally unclear when I asked before about the maps. The visual map ( [1]) is out of date, whilst the page List of countries with KFC franchises is as up to date as I can make it. Could you update the visual map with the data from the list page, or elsewise show me how to do it? Thanks. Farrtj ( talk) 10:22, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
