== Deletion of the wiki: Rumble (video platform) ==

Hello, I'm not sure if the page on Rumble should have been deleted, they are a top 100 website in the USA, bigger than Dailymotion and probably the ONLY top 100 website without a Misplaced Pages page.

Proof of claim: Alexa<ref>http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/rumble.com</ref> | Quantcast<ref>https://www.quantcast.com/rumble.com?country=US</ref>

I look forward to your response.

:{{re|Cpavlovshi}} The article was deleted because it was created and almost exclusively edited by a banned editor. Any volunteer editor may recreate it. You don't have to answer this question, but do you happen to be affiliated in some way with Rumble? If so, I'd also advise you that the article was likely deleted because you hired a paid editor to create it who has been banned for consistently failing to follow our rules relating to ] and our content policies related to ], ], and ]. It's likely that hiring another paid editor to recreate the article will result in the same fate. If the subject is really notable, a volunteer editor will likely create an article in due time for free, and usually with a better resulting article. ~ ]<sup style="margin-left:-1.0ex;">]</sup> 14:53, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

The coordinators will do their best for for the advancement of the improvement of NPP and AfC and generally keep tracks on the development of those things.

== WP:RX awareness ==

Hi Rob, I've seen in a couple of places now you've been trying to raise awareness of the Resource Exchange. Have you considered writing a story on ] for the ''Signpost''? It would give you a chance to get a little more in depth than your proposed Watchlist notice – maybe you could give specific examples of the types of requests WP:RX has been able to fulfil, and the outcomes achieved (I assume its helped articles get to GA/FA? And maybe allowed articles to be written in the first place, or expanded beyond a short stub?).

:{{re|Evad37}} I'm not a big fan of the Signpost, personally. If a writer for the Signpost wanted to do a story, I'd be happy to make myself available, but I'm not going to write something myself. It certainly has helped achieve GA and FA status in the past, although I don't really track which articles make it that far. ~ ]<sup style="margin-left:-1.0ex;">]</sup> 02:34, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

== Archiving resource requests ==

When you use ], it archives to a different location, ], than all of our other archives (most recently ]). That isn't the end of the world, but does mean the requests you archive don't show up in searches performed via the archives box at ], which is bad. Requests tagged {{tl|resolved}} or {{tl|stale}} should be archived automatically within 24 hours of them being tagged. If you don't want to wait that long, can OneClickArchiver be configured to archive to our usual location? --] (]) 07:32, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
