Hello User:Daniel, I am writing to request the undeletion of the Wikipedia page titled " Baltic Chemistry Olympiad" which was deleted on [14.12.2023] for the second time. It is not funny that some wiki-enthusiasts decide that BChO is a minor event. You are obviously unaware of the history and traditions of scientific olympiads. Let me explain that there are only four international chemistry olympiads with a significant history: International (since 1968), Mendeleev (since 1992), Ibero-American (since 1996), and Baltic (since 1993). Most importantly, the problems of the Baltic Chemistry Olympiad problems in English. Most of them are publicly available, and I am currently working on digitalizing the rest of them. Thus, not only is it a regionally important event, but it is also a significant source of problems for the whole Olympiad community. I have thoroughly reviewed the deletion policy and believe that the page meets the criteria for inclusion based on the reasons mentioned above. I have also ensured that the content adheres to Wikipedia's standards of verifiability, neutrality, and notability. I kindly ask for your consideration to review the circumstances of the deletion and to consider the new information provided in this request. I am open to feedback and willing to collaborate to address any concerns. For more details, please get in touch with me directly. Thank you for your time and consideration. Best regards, Olunet ( talk) 20:13, 3 February 2024 (UTC) Curious why you chose delete over NC here. Could care less about the topic, but the sourcing in the AfD is better than most things I've seen deleted and the vote was pretty well split. Jclemens ( talk) 17:35, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
Happy New Year. I got a request to create or undelete this article, which has been the subject of no less than four AfDs, but I can't do it now as I am no longer a sysop and am very busy IRL. Can you investigate this matter, having closed a prior AfD? Bearian ( talk) 15:09, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
Found them at 124.170.169.93. They gave themselves away when they restored an article that had been deleted by AfD. TarnishedPath talk 10:19, 11 January 2024 (UTC) |
First of all, in no way critical of you closing this AfD as delete. It's just that I came across, the closed AfD on my watchlist today. My query is whether it would be in order to create a redirect from Wadugegoda pointing to the town of Ahangama of which it is part, if a new governance section within Ahangama was written and mentioned Wadugegoda as one of its Grama Niladhari. Sources are this official map https://www.mpclg.gov.lk/web/images/wardmaps/galle/20_Galle_HabaraduwaPS.pdf (it's no 161B division of Ward 15 in the left hand table) plus Wadugegoda is mentioned in this article where it seems homes in the "village" were damaged/destroyed in a tsunami https://www.sundaytimes.lk/050529/plus/2.html (end of 4th paragraph). Thought it best to ask your opinion rather than going alone, as it may be against some rule. Rupples ( talk) 22:01, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
How does a 2 delete, 1 keep, and 2 merge vote end up being a merge close? If anything, this should have been a relist. Pilaz ( talk) 17:21, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
I saw you closed this AfD. I understand most !votes were to keep, so I'm not challenging your closure. But can you give a more detailed explanation of why you closed the way you did - especially with respect to the contention that this article's scope might be too similar to that of an existing article, making it a WP:CFORK.

Thank you for
accepting to unblock me. But I just would like to inquire about this statement: Note that as per the comments below, it goes without saying that you are on a pretty tight piece of rope here, and any further disruptive behaviours will result in the block being re-instated. Happy editing and welcome back
. Does this mean that if I made any mistake, I will be indefinitely blocked? This is my only time with disturbive editing since almost 8 years of editing and second time of being blocked for engaging in the Palestine-Israel conflict area. If I was indefinitely blocked from the problematic topic area, this would solve the problem. Why should this be my fatal mistake?

Hi, I now understand the report I made was insufficient for reporting on the ANI, however I do notice your verdict seemed to only apply to the disruptive editing on the current events page. I would like to ask why exactly was his decision to remove the report considered just a careless mistake where it actually exemplifies traits equivalent to being disobedient to rules/laws? An innocent person committing contempt of court should still be charged with contempt of court. Weisz21 ( talk) 21:12, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi Daniel, thank you for closing this discussion. I was just wondering if you judged whether or not there was consensus for the mass-rollback proposal contained within the same section.

Hi Daniel! Hope you're doing good.
