Holywell, Swords

The article relating to the community where I and 2000 other people live was deleted as a non-notable housing estate on 23 April. I disagree with this interpretation of the Holywell community and if I had been aware of the proposal for deletion I would have made my views known and discuses with the proposers. I would be very grateful if you could please reinstate the article so that I can view the comments and address any issues or concerns people have. Dvdgraham (talk) 14:51, 4 June 2008

Happy Independence Day!

As you are a nice Wikipedian, I just wanted to wish you a happy Independence Day! And if you are not an American, then have a happy day and a wonderful weekend anyway!  :) Your friend and colleague, --Happy Independence Day! Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles 01:07, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Re:Jonny Moseley

I have already expressed myself in the matter and I am no longer interested in making a big deal over the issue, but it seems to me that not only Phil has come over with his damn atititude, but that now he needs some backup. Look, thank you for explaining policy, now let's knock this off and continue with our constructive editing. Thank You. Tony the Marine (talk) 23:46, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

An IP requests restoration of Court of Flags Resort

An IP posted a message at Talk:Court of Flags Resort requesting that the article Court of Flags Resort be restored. I searched at Google News and found the following article, which might help to demonstrate notability: http://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-27267744_ITM --Eastmain (talk) 23:39, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Ofori Sarkodie

You recently deleted the Ofori Sarkodie article because he is not yet notable enough according to WikiProject Football guidelines. I have no problem with this, however, I find it highly likely that he will play either in the upcoming Olympics or some time soon for the senior US national team, which would make him notable enough. Were this to happen, would it be possible to restore the old page? Charles 00:55, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

I feel no need to contest the deletion, it pretty obviously doesn't meet WikiProject Football guidelines. I just spent quite a while tracking down all his caps and goals and didn't want to be all for naught. Thanks man. Charles 01:09, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Dawn Yang article

Hi you should not have deleted the Dawn Yang article. I think notable people can both be famous or infamous and Dawn Yang is extremely infamous in Singapore and Malaysia.

Have a look at google search http://www.google.com.sg/search?hl=en&q=%22dawn+yang%22&meta=

I think people were just too lazy to write a proper article. Maybe you should undelete the article and wait for someone to compile an article based on the sources and citations so easily found on google. It's not my area of interest so I prob won't do it. Just wanted to add a fair comment.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Aricialam (talk • contribs) 05:03, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Copyright images

I had no idea The Citizen or Canwest Global Media contacted Misplaced Pages to remove the 31 year old images with no commercial value in them. It hard to believe their sole reason is self-centered selfish possessiveness. I believe it is more an attempt at subterfuge which I have also detected on this site in relation to my 1981, 4000 mile hike to Whitehorse, Yukon to draw attention to Revelation 19.11. Having recused myself from editing the article, rightly so, I have been pleading with other editors to correct the obvious gap in the article vis a vis the 1986 trip east to complete the Canada wide mission. Maclean's Magazine provided written permission to use their script in the article but it is orphaned because the reference to it is removed. There has been no speedy action on this either. I will have the one who sent me deal with Canwest. I will have that written permission. DoDaCanaDa (talk) 12:08, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know about this issue- I have been working to get the images removed for a while. I wondered what the number was, I'm amazed that didn't occur to me... I agree with DoDaCanaDa that it's a shame that the images have not been released, but I feel this is good evidence that the images should have been deleted since the beginning.

Allegations of apartheid deletion notification

Some time ago, you participated in a deletion discussion concerning Allegations of apartheid in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. I thought you might like to know that the parent article, Allegations of apartheid, was recently nominated for deletion. Given that many of the issues that have been raised are essentially the same as those on the article on which you commented earlier, you may have a view on whether Allegations of apartheid should be kept or deleted. If you wish to contribute to the discussion, please see Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Allegations of apartheid (fifth nomination). -- ChrisO (talk) 17:36, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Mediox

My article on was deleted for not meeting the notability requirements. There have been several articles in the QSR Magazine, the top independent publication in the fast food industry, discussing Mediox's concept. The company is the first one one the market to bring digital signate into fast food outlets and holds several seminal patents in the field. Its software is open source with several independent open source programmers developing applications. Please check www.mediox.com for latest news. If possible, please re-instate the article. I no longer have the source for it. Dnamo (talk) 13:38, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Addict to the Wiki

I note you reverted his automatic addition to my talk page -- is he a vandal, going around Misplaced Pages nominating random articles for deletion? Not that I'm a cynic or anything ;-) Dave-ros (talk) 16:43, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Any particular reason why you decided to single out the above article an not any of the others: List of private-use airports in Oregon & List of airports in Oregon? --Trashbag (talk) 19:30, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

just visiting, but it does seem that we need a general policy discussion on this. Not sure which way I'd go. DGG (talk) 23:33, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
