This article has been expanded considerably. I urge you to take a look at it and reconsider your delete vote. Thanks. Denni☯ 05:02, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

You can renominate things for deletion. I've done it before, so I'm not sure why why your attempt linked to the past discussion. There's ways around that - one involves using the template somebody wrote but few people use for renominations, and one is to just, after you've used the {{subst:afd}} setup to put the template in, if it's linking to the old discussion, to edit the article and change the link from [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Love metal|here]] to [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Love metal (second)|here]] or something like that. That's for future reference, as here I'm thinking it's about to become a moot point, since I have a strong premonition that some editor is about to make this a redirect to the HIM album and hopefully end this neologistic falsehood.

Re:Durmus Kumdereli

Hi. Given that the translated version of the article did not receive much input and ended with a "no consensus" rather than a "keep consensus", I don't think anybody will complain if you list it for deletion again. Automatic relisting of AFD debates is something I do seldomly, usually it is because the AFD consists of the nomination and nothing else at all. BTW, it's nice that you like translating things, that is a valuable service to Wikipedia. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:37, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anbeysivam

Love your broken-english comments on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anbeysivam.  :-) I know we're not supposed to feed the trolls... But the whole thing is hilarious. Can we move the AfD subpage to WP:BJAODN once it's closed? Jamie 11:06, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

hi

i read your comment on the GH avisualagency AfD page and saw that you have extensive experience on here. i am trying to contribute to the GH article but everyone on the discussion page keeps giving me the wrong advice. most insisted that i have to prove notability, then they said that it was wrong to list articles about the collective. i don't know who to believe as they all keep leading me astray. if you could please offer me any advice on how to make the article better or make any adjustments yourself i would sincerely appreciate it. even if it does get deleted, at least i will have known that i tried my hardest to make it the best i could given the limited time frame. thanks so much.

• for editing reference, these lead to some other wikipedia articles i feel are similar: art collective, artist collective, List of graphic designers

• thanks for your great feedback. however, i can swear to you in a courtroom that i am not a member of GH and i did not originally author the article. i am a frequent user and devout fan of wikipedia. when i heard about the AfD through collegues of mine in the art industry who were knowledgeable about the collective, i came to see what i could do to help. it is rather disheartening that this 3rd degree of separation puts me in the realm of meatpuppet. it's odd that people have to be total strangers before they can be viewed as qualified to contribute to an article. thanks again for your time.
