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)

I moved as you recommended, but the talk page is still deleted. I think that one requires an admin to restore... you, I believe? Please and thank you!--Paul McDonald (talk) 02:04, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

please restore okular

I see that you deleted Okular as non notable, but it's a very notable software, it's the document viewer of KDE 4, it was in the google summer of code (that selects few important free software projects to help them), it is included in all the linux distributions. It was even a successful story of openusability http://season.openusability.org/index.php/2007/09/30/success-stories-07-okular/

it meets all the criteria for the Project:Notability_(software) guidelines, almost every computer site that talked about kde 4 covered okular too since it was one of the main new features of kde 4.

To complicate things the article was recreated after deletion but it's very small now and without references. --Argento3 (talk) 01:12, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks you were very fast restoring it. --Argento3 (talk) 01:34, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Request for Renaming an Article

Hi Rjd0060. Can you please move the list of Asian Canadian Ancestry to Asian Canadian? I want to remove the list of asian names and put them in another article called List of Asian Canadian Ancestry. Sonic99 (talk) 03:17, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Galaxy (video game)

I noticed you deleted the article as having unclear notability, as noted here, although it was a prodded by a suspected vandal and the prod was removed by me. Bearian (talk) 16:20, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, can you re-create it, please, so I can work on it later? (I'm wokring on City of Chicago v. Morales right now.Bearian (talk) 20:46, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Request to restore Stratasys, Inc. article

The Stratasys, Inc. article was deleted on September 30th because "it reads like an advertisement". All of the content on the listing was provided by other editors and did not come from Stratasys. There were plenty of errors that Stratasys would have liked to have corrected but didn't because we were affraid of being removed for Misplaced Pages. Ironic now that the article was removed anyway. What can we do to get our article back up either as is or with edits? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hhjh35 (talk • contribs) 19:12, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Request to restore Evergreen Turf article

Evergreen Turf was deleted due to an expired PROD on the 25th of September. We have two more sources to establish notability. With four independent, objective sources documenting the company, we feel its notability is established. Please reinstate the article so that we may bring it up to par per Misplaced Pages guidelines. --Evergreenturf (talk) 23:39, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Request to restore Dennis Wolf article

Request to restore Vari-Lite article

I have recently discovered that the Vari-Lite article was deleted.. 00:07, 14 September 2008 Rjd0060 (Talk | contribs) deleted "Vari-Lite" ‎ (Deleted because expired WP:PROD; Reason given: wikipedia is not a product guide..) I thought the listing of lighting fixtures was a useful reference about Vari-Lite fixtures past and present. Several of the units are discontinued and information about them is getting hard to find. I had compiled a lot of the information about the fixtures for people who wanted to know what the units capabilities were/are. Would you please consider reinstating the article and suggest how you would like it changed. AVLD 11:52, 9 October 2008

Request to restore Summer Sundae fringe festival

I've recently discovered the deletion of the summer sundae fringe festival article. I fail to understand the out of date claim for deletion, when it's an annual event to be repeated each year. I'd ask for it's reinstatement, so it can be updated for the planned 2009 charity event. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andyblack (talk • contribs) 13:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Do you have any independent, reliable sources for this article before I send it to AfD? - Mdsummermsw (talk) 14:32, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Request to restore Astyplaz (band)article

I am a fan of Astyplaz who created their page on Misplaced Pages and I have noticed that it was recently deleted. I cannot fully understand the reasons that you have produced for this action of yours. I daily run into hundreds of other articles about bands or individuals that are literally "self-advertising" to a pretty high degree (there are so many cases in point!). I really do stand aghast – what was the error, or the omission? And, my question is, how can someone’s biographical page/article/post get a space on wikipedia without being characterized as “non-notable” or “a self-advertisement”?

I do hope that you will take my protest into consideration and expect to have an answer soon. My request is the page’s restoration.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
