	None of them start out looking like that: if an editor initially just chunks in some text, many others chip in to tweak it up to Signpost standards. For example, someone wrote which Karanacs, Royalbroil and I turned into ], so if you just chunk in some text as a start, others can help finish it off. Another example, I put in and Karanacs brought it up to ]. Other editors have written almost complete and clean Dispatches without much need for other editing. If you're interested, please weigh in and coordinate at ] In case you're interested, you could just begin sandboxing something at ] and pop over to ] to leave a note when you're ready for others to help out.

	== Re: extremedb ==

	It seems to me these review periods were brief, and it seems likely that only a limited number of persons contributed to the discussion.

	I know that I would have added my thoughts if I'd known a discussion of this article was taking place. After the first "defense" of the article, the deletion request was withdrawn. And then a second deletion proposal was raised and quickly finalized without any defense being given.

	Arguments in favor of the article, stated in the first defense, received no response. Instead, the article was deleted based on (as far as I can see) two rather vague _opinions_ (not arguments).

	Do you not agree?

	I request that the discussion be reopened so that questions can be properly addressed. As I understand it, this is possible on Misplaced Pages.

	::I believe that the "debate" that occurred surrounding this deletion was interpreted incorrectly. I request that the discussion be re-listed for the following reasons:
	::# No consensus was reached. This is evident in the fact that the first individual requesting deletion _withdrew_ his request, and in the second discussion, only two people gave comments. Are you arguing that two individuals make a consensus?
	::# The discussion leading to the deletion was superficial. In the first discussion, one editor agreed to make requested changes, and no evidence was cited to show these changes did not occur. In the second discussion, the two individuals arguing in favor did not address specific article content; rather, one stated that the page "reads like an ad" and the second used a single adjective, "spam". No justifications, based on article content, were given to support these descriptions. If re-listing does not occur, it will be correct to say the page was deleted based on the editors' whim rather than on reasoned discussion -- and that should not be permitted.
	::# Possible vandalism/malicious changes to article in period leading up the deletion. I would like to see the "final" article that was deleted, as well as its history. I am concerned that changes were made to the article specifically to justify the charge that it is "spam".

	== Deletion review for ] ==

	An editor has asked for a ] of ]. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. <!-- This originally was from the template {{subst:DRVNote\|PAGE_NAME}} ~~~~ --> ] (]) 09:44, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

	The page was submitted for deletion by employees at Frozen North Productions, after Schooley outed them for poor business practices. See (http://emilyschooley.com/blog/?p=185)

	The page existed for months, and both myself and others made efforts to find more credible articles with neutral points of view from reliable sources.

	That it was "coincidentally" submitted for deletion just after Schooley posted her blog post is suspicious. Myself and others made efforts to revise the page after the original request for deletion was submitted, and tried to include more articles that met ] and ]

	I am also wondering about this. Having met Emily Schooley , seen her speak at conferences, and seen her work on screen, I feel that she meets the general notability guides at least, if not the notable guidelines for actors. I can provide scans of the conference guide in which I have seen her live at if the video is not enough evidence to show that she has done public speaking on the film industry. She is not a close personal friend of mine in any way, but she is someone that I have enjoyed seeing at conferences and watching her work develop over time. She has been credited for a significant amount of work, perhaps even statistically significant outside of one standard deviation above the mean based upon the mean of colleagues in her age range and gender. I wonder how an authority such as IMDB can have a page with the popularity that it does, and a resource such as Misplaced Pages will remove what I see as a page on someone wholly worth noting. That being said, I am seemingly misunderstanding the guidelines considering that the article was in fact deleted. I would like to endeavor to have her page restored. Would you be willing to guide me on how to correct the page so that it is in compliance said guidelines? ] (]) <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added 14:45, 23 October 2010 (UTC).</span><!--Template:Undated--> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

	== About Ms Sima yari ==

	----- Forwarded Message ----
	From: Dr. Abbas Milani amilani@stanford.edu
	Sent: Fri, October 22, 2010 9:14:53 AM
	Subject: "Sima Yari "

	Dear Sir/Madam: It has come to my attention that the entry on Ms Sima Yari has
	been, for some reason, eliminated from the Misplaced Pages. I know of her work, her
	published poetry, and the defiance of her voice. May be it is just this defiance
	that has caused the malignant urge of some unknown force or person to try to
	eliminate her. I have been under the impression that yours is a site given to
	the democratic reflection of a plurality of voices; judgment on the ultimate
	quality of each voice is up to the readers and critics, and should not be left
	to those who have the patience or know-how to act as censors and forces of
	elimination. There is often not much of a distance between elimination from the
	page to elimination from the public domain, and even more, physical elimination.
	We must stop the shameful process where it begins. Restate her entry for she
	deserves presence, and not elimination. Best, Abbas Milani

I suspect from his/her posts that English is not a first language and from reading multiple posts the editor sometimes uses the language in a way that is not customary for a native speaker. As well, this is a contentious article and contentious discussion and there are some clear good faith concerns, which we are hopefully dealing with on the talk page. Unfortuantaly your warning isolates one editor when there are other editor concerns. Edith says the comments were not personal and given the language situation, I would tend to accept that. At any rate this is just my opinion. Best wishes.(] (]) 04:14, 26 October 2010 (UTC))
	:Thanks for your take on it. As always, on article talk pages, users should strive to avoid comments directly addressed about other single individual editors, and instead focus on discussion of content, reliable sources, and how to improve the quality of the article. -- ''']''' (]) 04:18, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

	Hey Cirt, I'm coming back to you in regards to the article on Eirtakon, as you were the closing admin on the last AfD.

	We've done a bit of work to the article, adding more RS', and updating the event information as of the current year, and I was going to run it by you whether or not it's suitable enough to go back into mainspace. It's not the best, I'll admit, but to be perfectly honest it's better than some of the current articles about other anime cons in Europe (e.g. ], ], ] just to name a few).

	== Deletion ==

	I noticed you deleted ] unfortunately that deletion was discussed by people who really had no idea about the subject and who were incapable of finding the sources. Somehow I missed the notification that it had been put up for deletion. As was mentioned in the deletion discussion, the game is used to compete at a national level, it's one of the most popular shooters in Korea, it's published by a well known publisher (all of which satisfy notability requirements for western games), and searching an actual korean site for the name of the game generates nearly 10,000 hits , mind you there is a little overlap with the group Abba. So searching for the groups name and the korean word for"game" which narrows it down (but still drops some legitimate results) gives us over 1100 news results .I'll give you an opportunity restore it before I take it to DRV.--] (]) 23:29, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

	::Consensus was formed by people who didn't do a proper news search. You deleted it based on a lack of notability, I've just demonstrated extensive coverage.

	== Pittsburgh Tri-State ==

	(Breathing exercise) It seems that you were simply doing your job clearing monthly delete nominees. However (although not required) I would have imagined a "Tri-State" "regional" article would have given a heads up to the Wikiproject or Portal or page creator and chief contributor. I think what may have happened here is a diagnosis was decided on the heart without talking to any cardiologists (even though they are by very definition biased). The page was a long long time contribution to Wiki with tons of sources cited that by they're very nature seem to have been used as a justification for its deletion (reading the 25 something day thread). I have to admit this is a first for me, sources for an article being the reason for its deletion, (Akron, West Virginia are sourced by some authorities as included others as not included etc.). I would be happy to re-edit or clarify this article up to higher standards if need be (as many Pgh project members would be) but as best I can tell beyond not consulting anyone with knowledge of the subject, the only rationale was that there were slightly divergent source material. That is a dangerous precedent for the vast majority of articles on wiki, sources rarely define subject matter exactly alike. Again trying to piece this together looks like it was simply a housecleaning move by yourself, not a judgment in any way but I will be happy to strengthen this article. Also the Pittsburgh Metro Area article is in no way similar, it is rigidly defined by the CBO and Census, although I could see a single article encompassing both however I don't see a lot of precedent for that on wiki. Thank you for your consideration and please consider allowing project members to discuss and improve this page. ] (]) 02:38, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
	:Consensus was determined to be delete, at the AFD. However, I would be most willing to provide a copy of the article within a subpage of your userspace, if you would like to work on a proposed draft version there. Just let me know, if you wish it.

In addition to media coverage that has come through Peanut Butter & Co, Lee has been profiled by various media including The New York Times and Gourmet News, and is a frequent source for journalists seeking commentary on the natural and specialty food business.
