Page (deleted April 22) kelly frances Username megamediamissus / all links not working to start new discussions

Hello, I am uncertain as to whether or not this is the appropriate manner in which to discuss this issue, kindly help me out if not, my apologies. I could not find any recent rationale following links. (Page Kelly frances)

I contacted Misplaced Pages a week ago after having time to review a page that discussed my work. I am not very savvy with computers.

I was told I was suspected of being hired, and that sources were not reliable. Additionally, (though I am learning), I was last told by an admin that “the issue boiled down to my being an “outsider” and therefore spammer, something I don’t understand as I felt Misplaced Pages invited inclusion and contribution - not exclusion. I saw commentary accusing me of making too much work for admins. I do my best, and thus seemed unbecoming to a professional and respected community. I voiced this politely.

I was encouraged to add RS and did so yesterday upon seeing wiki editing and assisting me. I sent my thanks. I wasn’t made aware of current status and assumed I was being helped. There are many global RS. I’m unclear. I wasn’t aware the page would remain as my name is searched in this manner. It’s causing me embarrassment as it was a reference for 4 years that cited English language events in animal activism found in few places.

I then modified and added new - and reliable (news articles, etc) sources. Again, I was invited and encouraged to do so. The last rationale I received from your admin was "I clearly feel entitled to the recognition for activism work documented by news and recognition documented by RS-though I felt the page seemed very promotional initially - and this was a reason I requested help.". I am unclear what wikipedia would have someone in my situation do now as my name is searched often due to film nominations (Cannes being the current), and your records are embarrassing. Can I know my options please? Thank you for your help.

With gratitude

Kelly Frances

Ms. Frances, at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Kelly Frances the Misplaced Pages community of editors decided that we should not have an article about you because of our inclusion requirements at WP:N. Per our rule WP:COI, you should also not attempt to edit or create an article about yourself. Accordingly, I can't help you with any further advice aimed at restoring the article.

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Erich Göstl

Hello, I saw you closed Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Erich Göstl, I had just recreated the page not long ago, however your deletion of the page was the first time I saw that the page had been nominated for deletion. I tried to check the talk page but those are gone as well. Is it too late to contribute to the AfD discussion? Is it not proper to notify the page creator of the nomination for deletion of a page I just created not a month ago? I am wondering what are my options to restore or reopen debate on this page? Outback the koala (talk) 12:27, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

The AfD is closed and over. Notifiying the creator is often done but not mandatory. What you can try to do is to recreate the article in a version that addresses the AfD's concern via WP:AfC. Sandstein 16:10, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

Ok, Great! Do you know if there's anyway to get a copy of the last version of the article? I would like to work on it in sandbox before hand, but the history was deleted when the article was as well. Outback the koala (talk) 20:09, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

Yes, you can ask at WP:REFUND. Sandstein 05:45, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

John Two-Hawks deletion

Is the John Two-Hawks page still stored somewhere? I've been using it to create a discography on the Sputnik Music website, and it makes it harder that I can't get to it anymore. Thanks. 18:26, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

No, deleted pages are not accessible to users. Sandstein 18:55, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

OK thanks. Really wish this hadn't been deleted.Divamanhughes (talk) 20:52, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

The Meg: Primal Waters deletion

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/Meg:_Primal_Waters

I was attempting to access this page and I noticed that it has been deleted :( all I was wanting was a summary of the plot as I was reading up on the series. Is this information still available?

Thanks,

Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Kokborok script

Hi! I did oppose the redirect for Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Kokborok script (as would the nom @Jake Brockman: - per my reading of his nom - to this particular redirect). The problem is that there are a number of competing scripts for this language - and that it is a political dispute - see Script issues of Kokborok - which would be a better redirect (though I opposed it) than Kokborok#Kokborok script (Koloma).Icewhiz (talk) 17:05, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Sorry, I overlooked your opinion in this regard. Certainly the redirect target can be changed subject to normal editorial consensus. As a plausible search term, however, I'm not sure what argument could be made for not having a redirect target at all. Sandstein 17:08, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Kelly Frances article

Hi Sandstein, your talk page is on my watchlist so I noticed the message a new user inexpertly placed at the top of it. Kelly Frances seems to have received a very bitey reception from Misplaced Pages. If two of her projects are headed to Cannes, it seems a shame to discard the material even if by Misplaced Pages standards she is WP:NotYet notable. May I keep a copy of the draft in my Sandbox, where I will be happy to work at doing a better job on the biography, as my time allows and reliable sources give support? Thanks! HouseOfChange (talk) 02:20, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

I've no objection, but I don't undelete articles myself. You can ask at WP:REFUND though. Sandstein 18:14, 22 April 2018 (UTC)
