== Why delete Yap Kwong Weng's Account without addressing reasons? ==

Hi Darkwind, can you explain why you deleted Yap Kwong Weng's account without providing substantial reasons that were put forward by other people that stated so? Did you have evidence of puppetry? If so, please state it upfront. Otherwise, it is unprofessional to do so using your deductions put forward. Thanks.] (]) 02:17, 8 April 2013 (UTC)David

:] is formed not by counting votes, but by assessing the strength of the arguments made. There were no sources provided by any of the various people commenting in favor of keeping the article, so the argument that the article's subject is non-notable was much stronger.

:Additionally, it is a known, well-proven point that a significant number of ] accounts participating in a particular discussion is a very strong indication of puppetry. Misplaced Pages's typical readers do not generally comment on deletion discussions if they are not already Misplaced Pages editors, so having brand-new accounts come to comment is a very strong indication that those are either duplicate accounts of a particular editor ("sockpuppets"), or real live people recruited by an editor solely for the purpose of commenting on the deletion discussion ("meatpuppets").

:However, please note that any possible puppetry was not a factor in my decision anyway, because it doesn't matter whether the arguments were made by one person, or many long-term editors; the fact remains that the arguments to keep the article hold no weight under Misplaced Pages policy, because no sources were provided to back up those assertions. I mentioned puppetry solely to assist other administrators who may have come to evaluate my closing during a deletion review.

:At any rate, if you believe that I have erred in my assessment of the consensus of this discussion, you are welcome to inquire at ]. &mdash;] (]) 18:25, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

== Regarding deletion of the white noise a tale of horror article ==

I'm sorry but did you even bother to be in the discussion rather then just delete my article -_0 you can voice yourself on the talk page but i guess you didn't bother to do that either --] (]) 11:33, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

Are you still there i didn't receive the conseces on my article? so i am asking why was it deleted? --] (]) 11:35, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

:First, you absolutely '''must''' try to avoid language like "my article". Misplaced Pages articles are contributed to and by the community, and experienced Misplaced Pages editors take a very dim view of any perceived attempts at ]. I understand you're concerned about the article and likely upset that you feel your work was "thrown away", but other editors might just assume you're being egotistical. Use phrases like "the XYZ article" etc. instead.

:As for the discussion, it seems you're not familiar with the process of how deletion discussions are completed here. An ], that is, one who has ''not'' participated in the discussion, will read the discussion and evaluate the ], if any, that formed during the discussion. (See the 3rd bullet point at ] for clarification.) That admin will then take the appropriate action, if any, based on that consensus.

:To put it more clearly, the administrator who closes the discussion almost ''never'' comments or participates during that discussion. The assessment of the discussion must be made by an admin who isn't involved, and thus doesn't have any emotional interest in the outcome.

:If you believe that I made a mistake in judging the consensus to delete the article, you can certainly inquire at ]. &mdash;] (]) 18:35, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

:Further comment: Also, please understand that Wikipedians' actions or comments in relation to a particular article have no bearing on their feelings toward or about the article's subject. I personally like a lot of games from small and/or indie studios, and wish that there were a good way to promote them to a wider audience -- but that doesn't mean that I can let an article about such a game stay on Misplaced Pages in violation of both policy and community consensus. &mdash;] (]) 18:40, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
