What you've done here is quite risky, especially when the user just broke her promises shortly after getting unblocked. I personally would've kept that block indefinite. She is known for being deceitful (often through sockpuppetry) and her words should be taken with a grain of salt. It wouldn't surprise me if she breaks her word again.

Dear Ritchie333,
We hope this email finds you well. It was brought to my attention by one of Greg's associates that his Wikipedia page was deleted. Per our research, we noticed that it was you that removed the page. We were shocked to find this out. We could understand if some edits were required, which have been done in the past number of years by your fellow contributors. But a full deletion of a page- we believe that was extreme. Your reasoning/ position for removal was sited as (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion). Please elaborate. Per our review of the copy, we don't see that. Instead, it is a realistic portrayal of our client. Greg Herman - both the individual and the brand has and continues to contribute greatly to the world of fashion- namely accessories.
We took a second, third, and fourth pass, as did others in reviewing the article- and while it could use some edits, none of us thought it was unambiguous advertising or promotion. It was a true and accurate depiction of Mr. Herman, his early life, career, etc., and feel that the deletion was unwarranted. I understand that Wikipedia must be filled with tons and tons of articles that need to be deleted, however, this is not one of them. Greg Herman, his history, this article, has been part of the Wikipedia community for many many years and he's been listed in the various Wikipedia lists. He has contributed so much to the fashion community- his philanthropy through design (which we were planning to add), his history, and groundbreaking work to help and spearhead a boutique designer market that is still struggling in a sea of imports, his TV accomplishments, etc., were all wiped away at a push of a button in the world of Wikipedia.
We are advocates of anything and everything community. We also understand the difficult task you have at hand in keeping it all real and honest. Greg Herman- the person, the brand, the fashion designer, etc., is a real and authentic voice that has and continues to contribute nationally and abroad. I appeal to you, our team appeals to you to please restore his page. We are not very knowledgable in the inner workings of Wikipedia, but (if possible), perhaps you can be the monitor of the article as the page evolves in the future. Thank you for all your help in this matter.
Best,
Robyn Davis

Ritchie333,
Thank you for your prompt attention, along with the information and clarification. Both you and other Wikipedia members have been very helpful in this matter and it s very much appreciated. While I understand that restoring the existing article in it's current form is not possible, can we open a dialog as to how to establish a new one and/or could you aid with that. A conversation at the very least to establish his name back into the Wikipedia community. Whatever assistance you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again and have a wonderful day.
Best,
Robyn

Dear Ritchie333,
Thank you again for your help and I hope you has a great weekend! I was traveling and apologize for my tardy reply. I totally understand. I included below some links regarding Greg in this message. He has a number of articles on him, however, many of his published accomplishments predated 'Google' and are not avail online. Hopefully these are of some help, and at the very least could aid you in helping to establish a page for him and his name back into the Wikipedia world. If you need any additional info, please let me know. Again, you've been extremely helpful in this process and I thank you very much. Have a wonderful Monday!
Best,
Robyn

Hi, I wonder if you could rev-delete the edit summaries left by Special:Contributions/184.175.102.29? The edits were nonsensical and appear to have been made with the goal of defacing article histories with swastikas, "Sieg Heils", etc. The user is currently blocked, but the edit summaries remain. I would appreciate it. -- K.e.coffman ( talk) 05:18, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
On 23 September 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Houses of the Holy, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the cover of Houses of the Holy was designed by Hipgnosis and based on photographs taken at the Giant's Causeway? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Houses of the Holy. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Houses of the Holy), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Your behavior as of late is becoming increasingly problematic and indicative of an administrator who thinks they are bound to a different set of rules than everyone else despite saying that admins should be held accountable for their actions. Recent examples include disparaging other editors in order to undermine their credibility (
your comments about MelanieN in an RfA that was not about her and
your comments about Widr when I echoed his concerns in a CU vote about someone else),
hounding me at different RfAs and different pages (I can reasonably be assured that you will respond to any comments I make at any page even if my comments have nothing to do with you), and ignoring other guidelines such as
WP:TPO and removing comments you don't personally like that do not violate any policy. I'm taking the liberty and letting you know my objection to your behavior as a response to
this comment where you state Editors should be able to criticise the project’s administration and state their views provided they do no descend to personal abuse...
Thanks.

Just because you are an established editor, you are not above the rules, nor are others below you.Nihlus 16:50, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
Another stalker here. This needs to decisively conclude, either with Nihlus putting money where their mouth is and seeking some kind of formal sanction against Ritchie, or with Nihlus avoiding making contact with Ritchie. All the preceding conversation demonstrates is a marked disagreement between Nihlus and Ritchie, and is (realistically) a complete waste of time and energy. We should all get back to making some more content for Wikipedia instead. The Rambling Man ( talk) 16:58, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello Ritchie333, per your request I've added temporary IADMIN access to your account. Please keep in mind this is a stop-gap process, and getting Wikipedia_talk:Interface_administrators to closure is still important.

Greetings,
so after Tutupaca, Taapaca and Ubinas passed at FAC I was thinking of going back to articles which I wrote earlier and bring them up to FAC readiness, which often would require a total rewrite. Some of these articles such as Coropuna are currently GA and if I were to rewrite them for FAC there would be a period where they bear a green star despite being very unlike the version that passed GAN. This issue has held me back, any advice. JoJo Eumerus mobile ( talk) 21:59, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi Ritchie, since you've been the sponsor of Philafrenzy's failed RfA, I'd like you to take note of this: /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Alessandro_Strumia Imho this daringly unencyclopedic stub raises dire concerns about the author's attitude towards Wikipedia.
