Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Level_Pi
Hi there, I am the one who initiated the Level Pi page. I am a German living in Australia where there is next to none coverage of "classic" electronic music in the Berlin School sense. Level Pi's music combines the Berlin School with guitar sounds a la Pink Floyd which I believe is a new and unique style which warrants exposure in the English Misplaced Pages. As the article states, Level-Pi's 1st CD was published in 2006 under the Garden of Delights label and his 2nd on the Musea label. Both important labels for krautrock and electronic/progressive music. Level Pi's music was reviewed in magazines and e-zines important to this kind of music ("Exposé Magazine", "babyblaue-seiten.de", "backgroundmagazine.nl", "empulsiv.de" and others mentioned in the reference list). I am against the proposal for deletion as this article presents an artist which warrants exposure in Misplaced Pages. Moreover, all references are from reliable sources as far as I can tell. It would be a loss if this article is not available anymore as it gives some attention to this fascinating kind of music and particularly this artist. Please let me know what should/could be included to meet the standards. Phoenix69 (talk) 02:21, 1 April 2012 (UTC)
United States v. Approximately 64,695 Pounds of Shark Fins
From the third graf of the intro:
... the government sought merely to compel forfeiture of the fins under in rem jurisdiction instead of prosecuting the crew, resulting in the unusual case title.
To summarize the linked article, in rem cases are literally jurisdiction "over the thing," usually sought in civil forfeiture cases like this one since the standard of proof (preponderance of the evidence) is lower than it would be in a criminal case. We have a lot of other articles on these ... last year in an attempt to get some on for April Fools', I created United States v. Thirty-seven Photographs, United States v. 12 200-ft. Reels of Film, Quantity of Books v. Kansas and Marcus v. Search Warrant (all are obscenity cases from the '60s and '70s).
In rem case titles are usually funny at first (we also have United States v. $124,700 in U.S. Currency, done by someone else) but since the vast majority of them might be summarizes as State or Federal Government v. Some Cool-Sounding Luxury Goods Allegedly Used to Commit Crimes Like Dealing Drugs or Purchased with Proceeds Thereof, they get boring after a while. But this one isn't the sort of thing you expect to see getting seized, so it's often turned up on lists of funny court-case titles (I think it's also the contrast between the "approximately" and such a specific, yet large, number). And, it's certainly notable in its own right. I figured it would make a great April Fools' article, and so far it looks like I was right. Perhaps I should do this one next year as a sequel.
SCOTUS articles are my other area besides NRHP, generally, but since they involve more time I don't do them as much. This is technically not a SCOTUS case, but most cases from the appeals courts are probably just as notable since they become binding precedent in those circuits.

Nomination of Bill Hammons for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Bill Hammons is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Bill Hammons (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article.
You participated in the first AFD discussion, the article was recreated and I thought you might want to comment. Coffeepusher (talk) 15:44, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Redirect Deleting
Hello Nyttend I marked this redirect titles for deletion:
- Sri Ramakrishna Mission Vidyalaya
- Sri RamaKrishna Mission Vidyalaya
- Ramakrishna Mission Vidyapith,Deoghar,Jharkhand,India
- Ramakrishna Mission Vidyapith, Deoghar, Jharkhand
- Reason: Actually none of this are created as redirects. They are either moved or merged. For reorganising this I created the pages Ramakrishna Mission Vidyapith,Ramakrishna Mission Vidyalaya. This redirects actually create more confusions because there is no institution named Sri Ramakrishna Mission Vidyalaya or Sri RamaKrishna Mission Vidyalaya.
By the way sorry for any trouble. Solomon7968 (talk) 16:37, 3 April 2012 (UTC)
Declined speedy deletion of Khalidismailmma
Hello, you declined A7 speedy deletion on the subject article on the grounds that the article claims the subject participated in the Olympic Games. The article states that the subject participates in "Olympic freestyle wrestling"; I interpret "Olympic freestyle wrestling" in this context to mean Olympic-style freestyle wrestling, not that he participated in the Olympic Games. Would you reconsider speedy deletion on this one? —KuyaBriBri 20:22, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
- Hmm, you have a good point. However, the article also claims that he won seven national championships in the UK, which is an assertion of importance. I'd say it's best just to wait until the BLPPROD expires. Nyttend (talk) 21:45, 4 April 2012 (UTC)
- I have no problem with that approach. However, I will shortly be moving it to a more logical title. —KuyaBriBri 22:03, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Is this really useful?
You blocked Bacr13 (talk · contribs) for "496,800,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Planck times" (which the block log listed as "2678400 seconds"). This raises two questions:
- Is it really useful to anyone to use such obscure times? Why not just say 31 days and be done?
- Since BACR13 has already been temporarily blocked once, and returned to simply vandalize again, why not just a permanent block?
Just curious. WikiDan61ReadMe!! 13:02, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
Abismo de pasión
I've resolved the copyvio issue by deleting the article and restoring the last version before all of the copyvios were added. However, this involved getting rid of lots of improvements, so I manually restored the changes that I knew were helpful, such as your addition of episodes #52-60 and the inclusion of a link to hr:Abismo de pasión. Did I still delete useful content? I've put the content of the most recent deleted revision of the article (an edit you made nine hours ago with the summary of "Added last night's episode name & runtime") at User:Nyttend/Abismo de pasión. Please check that page, compare the differences between the most recent deleted version (the version of 11:44 on my userpage) and the version that's currently on the article (the version of 11:46 on my userpage), and copy over anything that I should have restored but didn't. When you're done, please let me know; I don't need to have this page hanging around in my userspace forever, and I'll delete it in a week or two if I don't hear from you before then and if I remember to get it deleted. Nyttend (talk) 11:49, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
- I read the disclaimer, so I hope you don't mind. I want to thank you for taking care of the copyvio problem as it has been a problem for a few months now. You can successfully delete that "test" page if you wish, as I copied everything to Notepad. Everything, as far as I know, is on par, but I would like to know if you could locate the recent version of the cast section. It was organized using a wikitable. If not, then I'll manually add it (if I can...) Platinum Star (talk) 16:42, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Was wondering if you'd be interested
Know you have an account at Commons too, so thought I'd ask. I've added to/created a slew of new archaeological sites for Georgia and the south lately. A few have illustrations/photos on nps.gov sites or are credited to NPS. I was wondering if you knew anything about how to find out if we can use them and upload them to commons, I know a lot of the government stuff are PD, but am having trouble figuring out how to do it. Some specific ones I'm interested in so far are :
- Lamar Mounds and Village Site, see BandW photo of mound and drawing of mound layout for images.
- King Archaeological Site, see upper right hand painting by Townsend This one is iffy if we can use it or not, but I think the 2 for Lamar would be good
Any help would be appreciated. Heiro 00:13, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the blocks
In a case like this, should I have reported both users? I'll admit I have a slight bias toward users I've worked with and discussed with in the past, and I'll concede I have an opinion on the subject under dispute (I reverted 89.100.207.51's blanking here). However, seeing as it was a "did not/did too" dispute, is it preferable to list both offenders? BusterD (talk) 14:00, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Arab Chamber of Commerce and Industry
Hi Nyttend, I wonder if you might be able to tell me why you reversed my CSD deletion of the articles from this AfD. They didn't "survive" the AfD in the sense that any sort of consensus-building took place; nobody commented on the nomination at all, presumably because nobody's interested in them (they are orphaned articles). I'd nominated them as an AfD just as a matter of procedure because of the number of articles, but they're all A7 candidates that refer to largely fictitious organisations without RS. If these can't be CSD'd, what can happen to them? They certainly can't be left around, since they appear to be an effort to use Misplaced Pages to legitimise Edwin Hitti's fictitious Arab-related organisations. In addition, please ensure that you notify other administrators prior to overturning their actions as a matter of courtesy. Best, --Tristessa (talk) 21:39, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
- The discussion was closed without a result of delete, and per the intro to WP:CSD, "If a page has survived its most recent deletion discussion, it should not be speedy deleted except for newly discovered copyright violations." As that page further instructs you, the correct procedure is to create a second AFD. Nyttend (talk) 03:44, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. It strikes me as unnecessarily paper-pushing though — I could have A7 deleted all of those articles to begin with (they'd mostly been CSD'd before if you check the history), but because I sent it to AfD and nobody commented it somehow protects the article. Yes, I know what WP:CSD says, but it does strike me as a bit illogical. Still, if you'd prefer me to follow that to the letter, I will. Best, --Tristessa (talk) 03:52, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Restoration of unsourced material.
I don't mean to bother you, but an editor keeps restoring unsourced material, even after he was linked to this article twice.

Misplaced Pages:School and university projects/Universitat Jaume I - E-translating
Hi! I asked for deleting three user pages. All of them are related with Misplaced Pages:School and university projects/Universitat Jaume I - E-translating. These subuser pages where used as a space for writting their draft, but a draft in Spanish. I imported these texts and these histories in Spanish Misplaced Pages. I think that now, they are not useful here, and however, they could be used for writting the same draft in two different wikipedia versions, and more work because we must import another time. And these pages are edited by many people because they were used as a draft, as I've said.
The pages were User:Patricia Carbonell/Translationdraft, User:Lalilolailo/Translationdraft and User:EnriqueGarcia/Translationdraft.

Block request
Hey, I went through the history and didn't see anything but new scores (is that the right term) added. Can you give a more thorough rationale as to why it's a BLP violation? Thanks so much. Keilana| 05:39, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
- Well, BLP aside, I see a 3RR violation by the user in question.--Jasper Deng (talk) 05:43, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
- This is true, but if it is a BLP violation, then any blocks handed out wouldn't be for 3RR. Keilana| 05:52, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
- When I was blocked for a BLP violation, it was also for 3RR.--Jasper Deng (talk) 05:54, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
- That happens sometimes. It depends on the individual situation. I personally will wait to act until I hear more from Nyttend. Keilana| 06:03, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

- This is true, but if it is a BLP violation, then any blocks handed out wouldn't be for 3RR. Keilana| 05:52, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, I just noticed that. My concern with citing 3RR is that, for one, you also violated 3RR in reverting him. However, I don't feel like a block is warranted in your case because you were simply reverting unsourced information that was being added in violation of...well, a bagful of policies. Let me take one more look; I'll keep you posted. Keilana| 06:57, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
- It's 2 AM where I am, so here's what I'm thinking. Cabj hasn't edited since blanking his talk page a couple hours ago. I'll check up on everything tomorrow morning (~9 or so hours), and see if any further action is warranted. I'm also really hesitant to hand out a block that seems punitive - if he's finished edit-warring, then there's really no need to block. Obviously, if he continues to add unsourced information after the warning I'm about to post to his talk page, then I'll strongly consider a block. Thanks so much for being patient and calm. I respect that a lot. Keilana| 07:02, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
- Upon further reflection (and sleep), I've decided to put this up on AN/I. Not trying to cause drama, obviously, but I just don't feel comfortable taking unilateral action in this case. Sorry to drag this out. Keilana| 15:45, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Saturday Disney
Hi. As the main contributer of Saturday Disney episodes, I see the article as a long list that will keep growing longer and is just something that could be merged into the main article. I mean, not in the format that it is now, but maybe I could put the important dates (e.g. premiere dates, new episode dates) on the main page, so that the 'episodes' page isn't needed. We could to it like Toasted TV's shows are done.. you see, no other blocks have the ep list and it feels weird that SD does. If that happened, could the 'episodes' page be deleted? Thanks.

Moving of List of countries by number of troops
The article also counts sailors from navies and airmen from air forces, not just soldiers from armies. It may be better to move it to say "List of countries by number of servicemen". Nohomers48 (talk) 12:36, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

David Riehm
Hi there. Please undo your deletion of David Riehm. Since I had previously (albeit 3 years ago) declined deletion, your deletion constitutes a revert of my administrative decision without discussion. If you checked the history of the article, you'll have noticed that the article was live for almost 5 years, that a previous PROD has been contested and a speedy request declined - all of which are indications that the deletion would not be uncontroversial and thus that the article cannot be speedy deleted. As such, please undo your deletion and take it to AFD for discussion instead. Regards SoWhy 15:30, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

I apologize for the date mix-up. I thought it said October 9, not 19. Are photos on Facebook from the same day enough to CSD them? I really believe that the uploader doesn't own the rights to those photos. -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 14:36, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
Deletion of User:GregLChest/SpiderGraph chart on 4/25
Dear Nyttend,
I'm contacting you because this is my first article and I need help to understand how Misplaced Pages works. I'm the Author of "Misplaced Pages:Articles for Deletion/SpiderGraph chart", that I started 7 months ago and have rewritten 4 or 5 times and on 4/24 Rjd0060 deleted and on 4/25 you also deleted?? We were in the middle of an AfD discussion proposed on 3/27 by Glrx and I was in the middle of addressing all their comments and objections and when I went back to paste in another discussion response, the article was gone! I don't see how a decision to delete could be carried out, after I have proven all of their objections wrong and no decision has been made, that I know of?? Did you even read the discussions?
Previously, I had sent the following message to a friendly Reviewing Editor for her advice, but as yet, haven't received any reply:
Shearonink, 4/22/12, A Plea for Help and a FAVOR regarding: Articles for Deletion/SpiderGraph chart
Dear Shearonink,
During January & February, you were friendly and very helpful while my article was in AfCreation! I forget the date, but at some point, I wrote you about someone seemingly wanting to put notches on their belt & trying to establish a Kingdom?? I forget the exact way I phrased it??
Mabdul, declined my article on 1/22, I made his changes and tried to clear up his incorrect assumptions with a 2 page response on 1/23. Mabdul replied on 1/24 and also asked his friend CharlieEchoTango to join in. My 1/31 response to them, mentioned the "Six (6) Comments" section of the article using other user sources (which I believe Mabdul later deleted) and also the "impartial comparisons" from other sources to address their COI comment and to answer Charlie's WP:NOT comment, I found WP:NOT#DICT (#2), that proves this article to be Very Notable per a Misplaced Pages Policy, which is also mentioned in this discussion.
Around Feb. 23rd, my article went public! On Feb. 24th, Chap, the Ripper did a Major Overhaul & Removal of most of my article. It was almost unrecognizable. I almost gave-in to his intimidation, but I didn't want it to reflect bad on WP, so I rewrote the article for the 4th or 5th time, around 3/12.
No new tags were placed on the article for almost 2 months, but the old Tags from early Feb. remained on top of the article. I thought someone had just forgotten to remove them. I thought all the hurdles had passed!
On 3/27/12, I received a notice that my article had been Proposed for Deletion by Nominator Glrx, which I answered on 3/31/12, with a 6 page Objection to Deletion reply, because all the accusations sounded like he hadn't even read the article or didn't understand it! Glrx, a PhD in Philosophy, hit me again on 4/3/12 with more of the same:WP:N, DUE, NOR, NPOV, & COI, and again on 4/9, with 11 more items. However, I proved all of his assumptions incorrect in my 4/10/12, 8 page reply!
Also on 4/3/12, Gene93k Added a Note Stating that "this debate has been included in the list of Science-related deletion discussions."
So Far, everyone that has come forth to vote for deletion, sounds like they never read the SG or Radar chart articles and maybe not the discussion either. I feel like I'm being Sandbagged for a Speedy Deletion by a tag team of kids! I try to spell everything out for them to clarify or correct their incorrect assumptions or accusations, but I guess their vote still stands?? Today, I spent all day writing a reply to Jorgath (a 26 yr old, non-technical, college student) & Livitup.
IF YOU HAVE THE TIME, please do me a favor and read over the deletion discussions and see what you think They all seem in a big hurry to hang the article & me out to dry and I don't know why. I just want to get on with my life! When you read my answers, you will see that this article is very Notable! It looks to me like, no matter what I say or do, they intend to go ahead with the Deletion.. As you read the discussions, I believe you'll see that there is definitely no COI.
End of message to Shearonink
4/27 PS to Rjd0060: I was going to file a Grievance, stating Admin Abuse to Glrx and request an undo, but didn't because I noticed that he didn't delete the article, even though he has been extremely prejudice and unwavering. Have you ever performed any informal mediations? Is there anything you can do to help me?
4/28 PS to Nyttend: I'm not sure what the difference is, other than Ryan deleted "SpiderGraph chart" on 4/24 and you deleted "User:GregLChest/SpiderGraph chart" on 4/25?? However, after reading your User page, I feel much safer in your hands! Because I'm from Mt. Vernon, Ohio and have lived in Cleveland, Columbus, and Dayton too. I'm copying everything to you, that I sent to Rjd0060 yesterday, because until now, I didn't know about you?? Maybe you can help me instead? I'm also going to read "Why was the page I created deleted?" as you suggested.
Respectfully submitted,
Gregory L. Chester (GregLChest@aol.com)

Hi Nyttend. I'd like to take another shot at this article. I will trim it up and make sure it's not a copyvio, but if you could help me by moving what was there to my userspace, that would make my work a lot easier. Thank you. Candleabracadabra (talk) 19:31, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
Thanks you

Vandalism userbox
I do have a vandalism userbox on my page but it's updating my vandalism userbox is starting to get annoying and I lose track so I just put "many" as the number of times my page got vandalized. If you see my userpage you will see a userbox that reads "this userpage has been vandalized many times" NHRHS2010 the student pilot ✈ 16:28, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Deletion of Cancer Prevention and Treatment Fund
Hello. Thank you for your long and good work as an editor. I am not an experienced editor but I see that you have deleted the page of an organization I have worked with. As a member of the DC Cancer Consortium, I was surprised to see you classify Cancer Prevention and Treatment Fund's entry as A7. Their patient booklet and health professional material on Ductal Carcinoma in Situ are widely used in Washington, D.C. What kind of information needs to be added?
