Hi, you speedy-deleted Rinat Timokhin. According to WP:NFOOTBALL: "Players who have appeared, and managers who have managed, in a fully professional league, will generally be regarded as notable." The list of fully professional leagues is maintained in WP:FPL and Russian First Division in which he plays is fully professional. I will be recreating the article.

I didn't realise this was set to be published, I thought I had started a draft...
Now how do I resubmit the proper article on the same topic?
I believe the artist is important and there is a lot of press and media about her. I don't know why my page was deleted when there are thousands of stubs out there that arne't even significant. I thought mine would be able to be edited and added to.

You deleted my page Rudrene ( talk) 19:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC): Talk:n-body Problem. Its path from the main webpage n-body problem a few paragraphs down is now highlighted in red.
The Talk:n-body Problem contained a compete solution and proof of the n-body Problem: a solution and proof which has to date never been effected before. Run this by any physicist and he will clearly see and understand that it is indeed a solution. It allows, for example, anyone to calculate the remote planetary forces when, say, they are subject to a large gravitational force like the Sun (classical problem). It solution and proof has been much desired -- putting it on Wikipedia allows the whole world to see and use it. Removing it is sad.
Nobody has ever been able to solve it before: at least not in the last 2000 years.
I am new to Wikipedia webpage creation and editing and am on a rough learning curve at that; and need help in that area. I am truly sorry if I have violated any rules.
The page was almost complete when you deleted it. Please re-install that page so I can complete it. Thank you. Rudrene ( talk) 19:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
Just for the record I am a mathematical physicist who has absolutely no desire to be known. Rudrene ( talk) 19:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
It just occurred to me you people think I created spam.
What I created on my Rudrene ( talk) 20:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC) Talk:n-body Problem webpage is not spam. Have some who knows physics check out what I have.
I started this Talk page because I was shocked to find most of what is on the n-body Problem 's main page was either flat out wrong; or in the least, wanting.
Thank you for your time and kind consideration. Rudrene ( talk) 20:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Rudrene: There are a few things wrong here. Obviously you have not read Wikipedia's help pages. I am not saying your page looks impressive but it also looks too much like original research, a big problem in Wikipedia. Also you obviously have a conflict of interest in this article. For some reason I do not understand you wrote your material in your user talk page, specifically counter to the indications of what talk pages are not supposed to contain. What is wrong with creating a sandbox under your own page? As per instructions you seemingly did not read in detail, I can point to the ones in this very edit page, where I request to please start a new section for any new issue (point #3 if you are wondering). Instead you completely disregarded it, proceeded to bunch your message hanging of a totally unrelated previous issue (thereby hiding it, not the way you would like to call attention to your message, isn't it?), and later you came back and started another set of messages and conversation below another unrelated subsection. Now all of it is fixed as I had to create your subsection and move paragraphs around. Please read the instructions on talk pages in the future. It will be much appreciated.
Now, after this long intro, I'll refer to your first issue. You said I deleted your page. What page? I do not recall (and with hundreds of deletions a month you will excuse me if I do not remember it). In fact I checked the last 1,000 deletions I did and could not find it. Another request at the top (#1 to be exact) asks to please post a redlink to it. Is it that much to ask? As I do not recall deleting any page like that (please correct me if I am wrong by pointing to it) I do not see what I can do for you here other than point you to the help pages or to a nice place to ask questions: The Teahouse. That's the best place for your questions. -- Alexf (talk) 00:07, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, can I ask why did you 'decline' the speedy deletion on the Pupula duplex article? It's a myth and the article is presenting as a real medical condition. A clear hoax as per the article in the edit summary. The only person to object was an IP address with a warning for disruptive editing on their talk page, who had no argument other than 'I've saw some websites that said it was true' with no links or citations. And there's a irony in saying the link provided is not reliable, when the article is citing 'Ripley's Believe it or Not!", and a text from 1918 that discusses it in terms of a superstition and doesn't actually support its existence. 121.75.142.211 ( talk) 21:40, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Alex,
I appreciate and value the Wikipedia philosophy and guidelines. And I understand why they are so important. In that spirit I am writing to clarify the following:
You have blocked my account under MODEStudios. MODE is the artistic entity (along with 7Wonders, another collective) under which I work. It is my 'name' as an artist.
You have also 'corrected' an edit I made to this page where I am repeatedly credited as working for a company I don't work for, and where that company repeatedly claims credit for a wide variety of art they are not responsible for: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminosity_%E2%80%94_Ignite_the_Night!
On that page I am identified as working for Chauvet Lighting. Additionally Chauvet is repeatedly credited for the work of myself and ALbert Crawford (the Lighting Designer for the project), when in fact they were a supplier of gear only.
Alex, despite the rules and spirit of Wikipedia, it seems that this whole page is actually authored by one or several companies to promote the project. While I am always thrilled to see projects I am associated with promoted, I feel obliged to point out to you that this page's existence is itself suspect under Wikipedia's guidelines, and the wide variety of misinformation on the page is also verifiable via references... Please feel free to view the sites at www.bonniol.com, RWS's website, or the magazine LiveDesignOnline to see articles which clearly attribute credits appropriately.
I would like to appeal that my artist name, MODEstudios, be unblocked as an account on Wikipedia so that I may meaningfully contribute. My reputation and work are widely known throughout the industries of entertainment, architecture, and interactivity as MODE, and this is easily verifiable. MODE is me, and I am MODE.
Finally, I am very curious about how the spirit of Wikipedia is actually enforced. I am acquainted with numerous individuals who have written articles about themselves or their work using 'shadow' names or having employees do it. It seems such an obvious epidemic of 'slight of hand' that it would seem to demonstrate even more integrity to just allow people to take credit for writing about themselves, and then also (as is inevitable) deal with the ongoing phenomena of being corrected or edited by verifiable sources with verifiable information. I ask this in a true spirit of curiosity and inquiry, and I look forward to what you have to say about that.
Very grateful for your consideration in this matter,
Thank You,

Hello,
I submitted the following page, which has been deleted: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Joyful_Company_of_Singers
I have read the blurb around the wiki site (I am a new contributor, so please bear with me!) and it appearst that it was deleted for copyright infringement. This may be because it contains text from the organisation's homepage (www.jcos.co.uk). I do not believe it to be copyright infringement, but that's because I wrote the text in the first place, so I hold the copyright on the homepage as well. I wasn't sure how to make it obvious when I posted the text in the first instance.
I would like to make it clear that I have not submitted this text in any way to be a "Puff" piece, but for encyclopaedic content. This is because the Joyful Company of Singers is referenced in various places around Wikipedia in relation to composers we work with and for, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/?search=joyful+company+of+singers&button=&title=Special%3ASearch so I thought it made sense to have an article in place in the same way that other choirs do.
Please would you therefore consider approving the article for creation?
Kind regards,
Susannah Zannieflump ( talk) 14:32, 1 October 2013 (UTC)
Many thanks for your swift reply. There are wider reasons that I believe it to be notable, which I can also provide, but I am not sure who to do that to - I don't want to spam you, but I have found much of the Wikipedia instructions to be quite techy and complex to navigate, particularly in how to prove souces of info. Do I now just wait for the AfC to provide a response and then worry about it?

Hey Alexf,
Sorry about the misplaced AIV request. Jumped in a bit too quickly, obviously. I do have a question, though - upon glancing at the user contributions for 216.163.208.2 the past few days, it appears the majority of them are nonconstructive. I'm looking at the last few entries on the talk page for this IP, and am wondering if this is when I should put a level 3 vandalism warning, as two vandalism notifications were made on 18 Sept, and two again on 20 Sept and 26 Sept.
Based on past history from this IP, it doesn't appear it's being used constructively at all. Just looking for your input so I can learn for the future. Thanks! GRUcrule ( talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello! You recently blocked this user for two weeks. They responded on their talk page with an incoherent, all-caps rant in Spanish or Spanglish. And that is all they have EVER done: in the nearly a year they have been here, every single edit by them has consisted of nonsensical foreign-language rants, which seem to be about some individual that they consider to have historical or religious significance. The user does not respond to suggestions or to blocks; they just post another rant. This account has NEVER made a constructive edit to Wikipedia, and I would like to suggest you consider a permanent ban. If you would rather not do that unilaterally, I will take them to AIV or ANI, whichever is the appropriate venue. Thanks! -- MelanieN ( talk) 18:09, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

I disagree with the advice you gave to User:SuperMarioMan about double tagging G13s, and in fact I would not only advise, but if possible require exactly the opposite. See my reasons there--basically, the other G criteria are most of them much more basic and much more important than G13.
Similarly, I disagree with article deletions about not using both G11 an A7. I always use both when they apply, and I have advised other admins to do likewise. I think that in many cases they complement each other. It serves as firmer advice to the creator, and avoid many challenges, and often serves as a clearer explanation. again, this is more than a personal preference--I think everyone should do this. I think many admins already do so also, and I in fact learned it years ago when I was a new admin from watching the more experienced admins. DGG ( talk ) 17:46, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

I understand why Al Mujahid was deleted. However, I believe that the article should be restored, because the subject meets notability and played a significant role in 1971 Bangladesh genocide. The formation of Al Mujahid was formally advertised in Dainik Azad (a leading Bengali daily in 1971) by Ghulam Azam on 7 April 1971. মানবতাবিরোধী অপরাধের সঙ্গে গোলাম আযম জড়িত (Google Translate [1]). The International Crimes Tribunal's [ judgement on war criminal Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed, quotes Sunset at Midday by former East Pakistan Central Peace Committee member Mohi Uddin Chaudhry where he mentioned that the Urdu-speaking Bihari Muslims were generally known as the Al Mujahid. The role of Bihari Muslim collaborators in the 1971 Bangladesh genocide as the perpetrators are known. They were involved in ghastly massacres such as the Golaghat massacre. Al Mujahid was in the same league as the Al Badr and Al Shams and often mentioned together. Considering this, I would request you to restore the article.

Now how do I resubmit the proper article on the same topic?
I believe the artist is important and there is a lot of press and media about her. I don't know why my page was deleted when there are thousands of stubs out there that arne't even significant. I thought mine would be able to be edited and added to.

You deleted my page Rudrene ( talk) 19:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC): Talk:n-body Problem. Its path from the main webpage n-body problem a few paragraphs down is now highlighted in red.
The Talk:n-body Problem contained a compete solution and proof of the n-body Problem: a solution and proof which has to date never been effected before. Run this by any physicist and he will clearly see and understand that it is indeed a solution. It allows, for example, anyone to calculate the remote planetary forces when, say, they are subject to a large gravitational force like the Sun (classical problem). It solution and proof has been much desired -- putting it on Wikipedia allows the whole world to see and use it. Removing it is sad.
Nobody has ever been able to solve it before: at least not in the last 2000 years.
I am new to Wikipedia webpage creation and editing and am on a rough learning curve at that; and need help in that area. I am truly sorry if I have violated any rules.
The page was almost complete when you deleted it. Please re-install that page so I can complete it. Thank you. Rudrene ( talk) 19:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

What I created on my Rudrene ( talk) 20:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC) Talk:n-body Problem webpage is not spam. Have some who knows physics check out what I have.
I started this Talk page because I was shocked to find most of what is on the n-body Problem 's main page was either flat out wrong; or in the least, wanting.
Thank you for your time and kind consideration. Rudrene ( talk) 20:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Rudrene: There are a few things wrong here. Obviously you have not read Wikipedia's help pages. I am not saying your page looks impressive but it also looks too much like original research, a big problem in Wikipedia. Also you obviously have a conflict of interest in this article. For some reason I do not understand you wrote your material in your user talk page, specifically counter to the indications of what talk pages are not supposed to contain. What is wrong with creating a sandbox under your own page? As per instructions you seemingly did not read in detail, I can point to the ones in this very edit page, where I request to please start a new section for any new issue (point #3 if you are wondering). Instead you completely disregarded it, proceeded to bunch your message hanging of a totally unrelated previous issue (thereby hiding it, not the way you would like to call attention to your message, isn't it?), and later you came back and started another set of messages and conversation below another unrelated subsection. Now all of it is fixed as I had to create your subsection and move paragraphs around. Please read the instructions on talk pages in the future. It will be much appreciated.
Now, after this long intro, I'll refer to your first issue. You said I deleted your page. What page? I do not recall (and with hundreds of deletions a month you will excuse me if I do not remember it). In fact I checked the last 1,000 deletions I did and could not find it. Another request at the top (#1 to be exact) asks to please post a redlink to it. Is it that much to ask? As I do not recall deleting any page like that (please correct me if I am wrong by pointing to it) I do not see what I can do for you here other than point you to the help pages or to a nice place to ask questions: The Teahouse. That's the best place for your questions. -- Alexf (talk) 00:07, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, can I ask why did you 'decline' the speedy deletion on the Pupula duplex article? It's a myth and the article is presenting as a real medical condition. A clear hoax as per the article in the edit summary. The only person to object was an IP address with a warning for disruptive editing on their talk page, who had no argument other than 'I've saw some websites that said it was true' with no links or citations. And there's a irony in saying the link provided is not reliable, when the article is citing 'Ripley's Believe it or Not!", and a text from 1918 that discusses it in terms of a superstition and doesn't actually support its existence. 121.75.142.211 ( talk) 21:40, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Alex,
I appreciate and value the Wikipedia philosophy and guidelines. And I understand why they are so important. In that spirit I am writing to clarify the following:
You have blocked my account under MODEStudios. MODE is the artistic entity (along with 7Wonders, another collective) under which I work. It is my 'name' as an artist.
You have also 'corrected' an edit I made to this page where I am repeatedly credited as working for a company I don't work for, and where that company repeatedly claims credit for a wide variety of art they are not responsible for: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminosity_%E2%80%94_Ignite_the_Night!
On that page I am identified as working for Chauvet Lighting. Additionally Chauvet is repeatedly credited for the work of myself and ALbert Crawford (the Lighting Designer for the project), when in fact they were a supplier of gear only.
Alex, despite the rules and spirit of Wikipedia, it seems that this whole page is actually authored by one or several companies to promote the project. While I am always thrilled to see projects I am associated with promoted, I feel obliged to point out to you that this page's existence is itself suspect under Wikipedia's guidelines, and the wide variety of misinformation on the page is also verifiable via references... Please feel free to view the sites at www.bonniol.com, RWS's website, or the magazine LiveDesignOnline to see articles which clearly attribute credits appropriately.
I would like to appeal that my artist name, MODEstudios, be unblocked as an account on Wikipedia so that I may meaningfully contribute. My reputation and work are widely known throughout the industries of entertainment, architecture, and interactivity as MODE, and this is easily verifiable. MODE is me, and I am MODE.
Finally, I am very curious about how the spirit of Wikipedia is actually enforced. I am acquainted with numerous individuals who have written articles about themselves or their work using 'shadow' names or having employees do it. It seems such an obvious epidemic of 'slight of hand' that it would seem to demonstrate even more integrity to just allow people to take credit for writing about themselves, and then also (as is inevitable) deal with the ongoing phenomena of being corrected or edited by verifiable sources with verifiable information. I ask this in a true spirit of curiosity and inquiry, and I look forward to what you have to say about that.
Very grateful for your consideration in this matter,
Thank You,

Hello,
I submitted the following page, which has been deleted: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Joyful_Company_of_Singers
I have read the blurb around the wiki site (I am a new contributor, so please bear with me!) and it appearst that it was deleted for copyright infringement. This may be because it contains text from the organisation's homepage (www.jcos.co.uk). I do not believe it to be copyright infringement, but that's because I wrote the text in the first place, so I hold the copyright on the homepage as well. I wasn't sure how to make it obvious when I posted the text in the first instance.
I would like to make it clear that I have not submitted this text in any way to be a "Puff" piece, but for encyclopaedic content. This is because the Joyful Company of Singers is referenced in various places around Wikipedia in relation to composers we work with and for, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/?search=joyful+company+of+singers&button=&title=Special%3ASearch so I thought it made sense to have an article in place in the same way that other choirs do.
Please would you therefore consider approving the article for creation?
Kind regards,

Many thanks for your swift reply. There are wider reasons that I believe it to be notable, which I can also provide, but I am not sure who to do that to - I don't want to spam you, but I have found much of the Wikipedia instructions to be quite techy and complex to navigate, particularly in how to prove souces of info. Do I now just wait for the AfC to provide a response and then worry about it?

Hey Alexf,
Sorry about the misplaced AIV request. Jumped in a bit too quickly, obviously. I do have a question, though - upon glancing at the user contributions for 216.163.208.2 the past few days, it appears the majority of them are nonconstructive. I'm looking at the last few entries on the talk page for this IP, and am wondering if this is when I should put a level 3 vandalism warning, as two vandalism notifications were made on 18 Sept, and two again on 20 Sept and 26 Sept.
Based on past history from this IP, it doesn't appear it's being used constructively at all. Just looking for your input so I can learn for the future. Thanks! GRUcrule ( talk) 14:44, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello! You recently blocked this user for two weeks. They responded on their talk page with an incoherent, all-caps rant in Spanish or Spanglish. And that is all they have EVER done: in the nearly a year they have been here, every single edit by them has consisted of nonsensical foreign-language rants, which seem to be about some individual that they consider to have historical or religious significance. The user does not respond to suggestions or to blocks; they just post another rant. This account has NEVER made a constructive edit to Wikipedia, and I would like to suggest you consider a permanent ban. If you would rather not do that unilaterally, I will take them to AIV or ANI, whichever is the appropriate venue. Thanks! -- MelanieN ( talk) 18:09, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

I disagree with the advice you gave to User:SuperMarioMan about double tagging G13s, and in fact I would not only advise, but if possible require exactly the opposite. See my reasons there--basically, the other G criteria are most of them much more basic and much more important than G13.
Similarly, I disagree with article deletions about not using both G11 an A7. I always use both when they apply, and I have advised other admins to do likewise. I think that in many cases they complement each other. It serves as firmer advice to the creator, and avoid many challenges, and often serves as a clearer explanation. again, this is more than a personal preference--I think everyone should do this. I think many admins already do so also, and I in fact learned it years ago when I was a new admin from watching the more experienced admins. DGG ( talk ) 17:46, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

I understand why Al Mujahid was deleted. However, I believe that the article should be restored, because the subject meets notability and played a significant role in 1971 Bangladesh genocide. The formation of Al Mujahid was formally advertised in Dainik Azad (a leading Bengali daily in 1971) by Ghulam Azam on 7 April 1971. মানবতাবিরোধী অপরাধের সঙ্গে গোলাম আযম জড়িত (Google Translate [1]). The International Crimes Tribunal's [ judgement on war criminal Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed, quotes Sunset at Midday by former East Pakistan Central Peace Committee member Mohi Uddin Chaudhry where he mentioned that the Urdu-speaking Bihari Muslims were generally known as the Al Mujahid. The role of Bihari Muslim collaborators in the 1971 Bangladesh genocide as the perpetrators are known. They were involved in ghastly massacres such as the Golaghat massacre. Al Mujahid was in the same league as the Al Badr and Al Shams and often mentioned together. Considering this, I would request you to restore the article.
