Deleted something that should have been kept!!! - Towns in RSK

Hello, you have disrupted a perfectly viable and just wikipedia page. The link is, http://en.wikipedia.org/Towns_in_the_Former_RSK . You seem to put some rational for its deletion there. However, if you even bothered to read the rational that you put, you will see many faulty things. That rational link that you provide shows clearly that the page should stay. The rational link agrees that the category should be deleted, and it was deleted a long time ago. However, it clearly says that the towns should be listified as they have been in that topic. Why did you delete this topic then? That talk/debate was about the category, and the decision was to keep it as a topic. You are disrupting wikipedia! Please put that topic back as soon as possible.

Hi, Rjd0060.
I've restored the tag for the speedy deletion on this article Towns_in_the_Former_RSK.
Please, see the talkpage Talk:Towns_in_the_Former_RSK#Article_needs_to_be_deleted (it's the summary of the discussion on WP:CFD, see link there).
Keeping that article is ordinary evasion of the results of the discussion on the deletion of the category (category, created by the same user; articles were categorized, beside others, with few sockpuppets). Delete (15 votes), keep (7 votes), delete and listify (6 votes).
15 is more than 7+6. Please, we must respect the results.
Otherwise, what are we getting into? Towns in the former Third Reich?
I repeat again. When LAz17 saw that he's about to lose in voting on the deletion of category, he created the article. Kubura (talk) 06:23, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Centre Sheraton

Centre Sheraton in Montreal. Before deleting that page you could, and should, have checked to see how many articles are linked to it. You created a mess. This could have been just as valid as say Sheraton Centre (Toronto) or Sheraton Centre (Barbados) Peter Horn 00:43, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

The problem?? It could have been marked as a stub. Why not just delete the other two as well, especially the Toronto one? Peter Horn 00:51, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Some of the news articles at http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=%22Centre+Sheraton%22+Montreal are probably sufficient to establish notability for the hotel. --Eastmain (talk) 15:59, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

I deleted it because a PROD when uncontested. I have no opinion on whether or not it should have been deleted. If Peter Horn had read the proposed deletion policy instead of going around calling me "disruptive" in various places, he would have noticed that PROD-deleted articles can be restored upon request. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:01, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Of course. If you could restore the article, I could add the articles from the Google News archive search that I mentioned. -- Eastmain (talk) 17:00, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

please restore history of Brick & Lace

You deleted Brick & Lace as an expired prod, and earlier another editor deleted a previous version. A new version of the article has been created which demonstrates notability through charting and tours. Could you please restore the history of the article, as it might be possible to expand the article with information from the deleted versions? -- Eastmain (talk) 15:56, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

deletion of "asynchronous procedure call" article

Can you point me to the deletion debate? Usually when a page has been deleted the template has a link to the discussion that led to the deletion.

Failing that, is there a way I could get a quick look at the article as it was before deletion?

Thanks in advance for your assistance. Jeh (talk) 23:02, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply! Makes sense. Jeh (talk) 23:19, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Clarifying your actions

I'd like to clarify now how you think WP:SPS does not apply to articles? Are you saying this article should have immunity to WP:V? What do you exactly mean? I'd also like to know why you only give one party an edit warring warning and not the other. Takes two to go to battle right? Are you also making a statement now that WP:BURDEN does not apply to GlassCobra? Tmore3 (talk) 00:31, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

MISR (firearm)

Hi, I am seeking your help from a wikipedian that you have blocked before Usertalk:Nukes4Tots and also from Usertalk:koalorka, who are attempting to vandalize the page of MISR. Please check my talk page and both their talk page to read what they accused me of.Orthopraxia (talk) 21:16, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Sorry. Orthopraxia has been reported for 3RR and is lashing out. See the report here: . --Nukes4Tots (talk) 02:29, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps a semi-protect may be in order?

Deletion of Simon F. Pauxtis

I noticed that you deleted the article Simon F. Pauxtis recently. On further research, I am finding a good deal of information about this person, including a potential professional baseball career with the Cincinati Reds and coaching at multiple other schools with verification in the NY TImes and other sources. Can you please restore that page to my user space at User:Paulmcdonald/Simon F. Pauxtis so I can work on the article for re-submission? --Paul McDonald (talk) 21:16, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! If you don't mind, please review my first round of changes at User:Paulmcdonald/Simon F. Pauxtis.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:41, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I think we're ready to ask for you (the deleting administrator) to restore the article based on changes and new information found. If choose not to restore it, then I request that the article go to deletion review. Sure, the article could use cleanup and editing, but I believe that we've overcome notability and verifiability--so I'd like to get the article back into Misplaced Pages for other editors to collaborate. If you choose to restore the article, can you do so from the updated article in my workspace/sandbox?--Paul McDonald (talk) 22:11, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
