Well, the material was tagged as unsourced and I removed it. As you are well aware, unsourced material may be removed at any time. I'm not aware of any good sources for the material. Viriditas ( talk) 07:47, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

Hey, it's been a while. I made some changes on an article you might remember, Biological issues in Jurassic Park, and more importantly the paleologists finally got interested. It's now nigh-unrecognizable.
As such, would you be willing to withdraw your "delete" from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Biological issues in Jurassic Park, which was temporarily suspended so that the article could be improved? If yes, saying so here should be enough, no reason to prod an AfD this old more than is necessary. If not, then for the sake of all that is good and holy don't jump into another deletion attempt, there's still some things I could do to improve it.

Everything in the Signpost should be ready to go, once TROLL and Features and admins are done. I'll be unavailable until tonight, so if you want to publish, that'd be great. Just saw your message in the newsroom. Taking a few hours is just fine, and if you want publish once you're done, that'd be convenient. The only thing you'll have to do is update
Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Issue; everything else is either done or can wait.--

I've reverted your automatically bolding of the entire "result" segment. Some of the text (like the reason and the closing user's signature) are part of that segment, and should not be bold. If we want to make the allow/disallow/etc part automatically bold, we should probably split it from the other stuff, like: {{subst:rfcn top|Disallow|not enough consonants. ~~~~}}. I'm happy with just manually bolding as we've been doing, though. - kotra ( talk) 17:49, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
I appreciate your help undeleting the straw polls article. However, as may not have been immediately obvious, most of the article was transcluded from two other articles deleted at the same time, and so the undeletion will not signficiantly help discussion unless these two are also restored. They are Straw polls for the Democratic Party 2008 presidential nomination and Straw polls for the Republican Party 2008 presidential nomination. There were also two maps created for these articles that would be needed, and I believe they were deleted as well, which means their names would need to be pulled from the history of the two restored articles. Since userfication seems appropriate as a bare minimum, I and User:William S. Saturn (their creator) would both like the two maps to be restored permanently, and we can userfy the articles from the restorations ourselves. If you could please have this completed, or comment as to any issues, I would appreciate it very much. JJB 18:18, 15 June 2009 (UTC) I don't know if there is a procedure on restoring talk, but obviously the three article talk pages would also need restoration, as they give significant evidence as to confirming or denying the allegations being remade in the current discussion. Thank you! JJB 18:56, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi Sersin. The results of the AfD discussion for SocialSense was redirect and merge. You indicated that "merging may be done by editorial process” I would like to perform the merge, are there special guidelines I need to follow? Can I just move the core components (text and images) to the main article? Also, I just tried going to the original SocialSense article (in order to copy some text from it and discovered that it’s GONE!-- PiRSqr ( talk) 21:36, 17 June 2009 (UTC)

Just a note to let you know - it looks like you went to close this AfD earlier today, but (assuming you were using a script) something went wrong. You removed the AfD template and added the old AfD template on the talk page, but the AfD itself was not actually closed. I only noticed this after I closed the AfD myself just now, although fortunately it looks like we both came to the same conclusion as to the outcome! Thanks. ~ mazca talk 12:52, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
Hello,
I removed the G4 CSD tag you added to Ryan Higa and Sean Fujiyoshi. While an article by that name was previously deleted, this is a completely different article (it is sourced for example) and thus not eligible for speedy deletion as recreated material.
You are welcome to send it to AfD if you really want, but the subject does appear to have sufficient RS coverage to warrant inclusion. See GNews -- ThaddeusB ( talk) 05:02, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
Thankyou very much for getting rid of the Greenfinger content. However, even those initially calling most strongly for a soft redirect noted during the ongoing discussion that the wikipedia search was most likely misspelling green fingers not trying to find Greenfinger. I have now created a soft redirect to wiktionary from green fingers. Could you please change Greenfinger and certainly green finger to protected redirects to green fingers. The wiktionary article Greenfinger is tagged as a protologism, this has not been challenged and I put an request for verification on it 6 days ago so it may not even survive in wiktionary. (First ever use of the Greenfinger was less than a year ago and other uses are media quotes arising from this single story). Polargeo ( talk) 06:58, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
A soft redirect is going far against consensus and this should have been deleted. Polargeo ( talk) 07:30, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
I think you have genuinely mistaken the consensus here. Of those 5 who requested redirects, the 3 who responded to the arguments put forward all changed their positions (even if they didn't cross out their original vote). Certainly there was no consensus for the soft redirect in the end. I understand it was a long and difficult debate to follow. I am considering asking for a deletion review but don't know if I really have the stomach to put other admins through this right now. Polargeo ( talk) 10:57, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
In summary, I've proposed pretty much putting it as a branch from your user page so that it can be further worked on and polished up. It's typically a good alternative to merely erasing an article outright, especially when there's potential for there to be a viable article.

You said: "The article [iCan Benefit Group] made no claim as to why it is is important. Merely being endorsed by a celebrity is not significant. If you have evidence that third-parties have given significant note to the group, the article could exist."
Would it be helpful to note that there is an ongoing debate over whether or not low-cost health insurance is really worth it? A recent article in Businessweek discusses iCan Benefit objectively, addressing this ongoing debate in the industry. Would linking to this article (or others like it) as a reference establish the necessary notability? Sethdillon ( talk)

An image which I uploaded of a French comic book writer who died in 1998 has been nominated since 16th June. The image is from his official website and as proven in the discussion, alternate images are very hard to find and in fact, I couldn't find one after an extensive search. I'd appreciate it if I could have your comment on this matter. Thanks -- Roaring Siren ( talk) 16:26, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
As you have been active at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User names I am asking you this. What about inappropriate usernames that are inappropriate and contributions are only their user page and user talk page creations which were over a year ago? If they are blocked for inappropriate username, their user and talk can be added to CAT:TEMP.-- Otterathome ( talk) 11:08, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
Could you please explain what is different between Marcelo Lucero (see also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marcelo Lucero and Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2009_June_6#Marcelo_Lucero) and Luis Eduardo Ramirez Zavala that despite their near-identical notability, circumstances, and sourcing available you decided to delete the latter?
