The Sky Riders: An Inventors World Novel

Hi, I saw that you deleted the page I made for The Sky Riders. May I ask why?

Thanks, Andy

• Explanation was left on your talk page. NawlinWiki (talk) 23:05, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

Edit: Okay, I went ahead and spent a good few hours to create a new page for the book; one that met the requirements of Wikipedia. I'm not trying to 'advertise' a book I wrote, I didn't even write it. It's a good book, and I would like more people to know about it, but I really think that there should be a page for it. Please undelete it. Or please give me permission to recreate the page (Thankfully I saved the page that I made in another document).

- Andy

• Well, this sure seems like advertising to me: "His prolific writings in both book and blog form have captured the imaginations of loyal readers around the world. ". Regardless, there isn't any showing that this selfpublished book is notable per our standards, WP:V, as shown by reliable independent sources, WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:50, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

I just got that from the back of the book; I didn't make that up. :P Why would it not be notable? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CrazyAndyMan (talk • contribs) 23:39, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Do you even think before you delete? What I wrote on Ham or hamming is borne by dictionary and culture! Also Holmes was himself described as 'didactic' by Watson! And he and other detectives/ actors as well, when they go on and on....is called as Hamming! Or as Ham actors or Ham orators! It's up to you now! I am tired!

Opensooq

I'm finished. Please check it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Existed/Opensooq 18 September 2013

Opensooq

The "Opensooq" article has been deleted by you and 2 more, because it was tells a lot about advertising ... But we were working on the content and we were not finished yet.. so is there any chance to get it back so I can edit it with the new content "Not advertising".

Kalik (band)

You deleted an articel i was writing on. As i said i was not done. The band has featured in a major music competition, where they played with bands like Ozzy Osbourne, Black label society.

It's not enough that the band was mentioned on the Danish radio page. Please take a closer look at WP:MUSIC. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:26, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

But its funny, that the Criteria for musicians and ensembles is:

11. Has been placed in rotation nationally by a major radio or music television network. 12. Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or TV network.

• Neither of those meets WP:MUSIC. "Played with", i.e., performing at the same concert, is not one of the criteria. And simply being mentioned on the radio web page is not the same as their music being "in rotation" or their being a "featured subject". NawlinWiki (talk) 21:42, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Then go read the references. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johndelounge (talk • contribs) 22:00, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Article Feedback Tool update

Hey NawlinWiki. I'm contacting you because you're involved in the Article Feedback Tool in some way, either as a previous newsletter recipient or as an active user of the system. As you might have heard, a user recently anonymously disabled the feedback tool on 2,000 pages. We were unable to track or prevent this due to the lack of logging feature in AFT5. We're deeply sorry for this, as we know that quite a few users found the software very useful, and were using it on their articles.

We've now re-released the software, with the addition of a logging feature and restrictions on the ability to disable. Obviously, we're not going to automatically re-enable it on each article—we don't want to create a situation where it was enabled by users who have now moved on, and feedback would sit there unattended—but if you're interested in enabling it for your articles, it's pretty simple to do. Just go to the article you want to enable it on, click the "request feedback" link in the toolbox in the sidebar, and AFT5 will be enabled for that article.

Again, we're very sorry about this issue; hopefully it'll be smooth sailing after this :). If you have any questions, just drop them at the talkpage. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) 21:47, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

SF Camerawork

Hi NawlinWiki, I went to create a new page for SF Camerawork only to find that it had been deleted four times in 2008, one of which was by you. You seem to be more active on your talk page than the other editors Fabrictramp (on wikibreak) and Lid, so I thought I would ask you if there are any steps I need to take to create this page. It was a speedy deletion, so there wasn't any discussion, which I believe carries more weight & bureaucratic process re: reinstating. I understand that whatever was there before was not NPOV. I will be writing an NPOV stub with citations. SF Camerawork definitely meets notability: it is one of the more important non-profit photo galleries in the US. It is in the same ballpark as Exit Art, Art in General, Eyebeam Art and Technology Center, or New Langton Arts. Cheers.--Theredproject (talk) 18:50, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

• It appears that the previous deletions were because SF itself attempted to mirror its "About Us" page on Wikipedia. Feel free to post a neutral, third-person, sourced article. Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 19:32, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, will do.--Theredproject (talk) 03:11, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Echobit evlove

Hi there, any info what happen to this article Evolve (software)? And is it okay to start a new article about echobit evolve (although my knowledge about this new protocol maybe limited)? It seems that this zero config VPN software certainly gain alot of significant recently, somewhat similar to when Tunngle start gaining influence over Hamachi (software). It was a bit surprising to find out it was no info available on Wikipedia yet GSPbeetle ^{complains Vandalisms} 13:07, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

• The article didn't cite any references to show notability, and appeared to be a promo piece written by the company that makes this software. If you can find reliable sources showing notability, feel free to recreate the article. Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 16:12, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
  • WIP, but may take some time, cheers. Is the format used by Hamachi (software) and Tunngle is acceptable? GSPbeetle ^{complains Vandalisms} 13:56, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
    • Generally yes, although it would be better to have more independent sources. NawlinWiki (talk) 14:15, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Sockpuppets of User:The abominable Wiki troll

I posted this on another admin's (User:Sergecross73) talk page, but wanted to bring this to your attention:

• Hate digging this up, but I'm in the middle of a long Wiki break but came back (shouldn't have) and noticed this edit [[1]]. What has flagged this for me is that User:Abnormally cold and User:Hook free have made identical edits. Hook free has been blocked for being User:The abominable Wiki troll who has a rather long list of confirmed sockpuppets. As I pointed out in June [2] this user is part of a larger number of identical accounts (he claimed as "fellow student(s) with similar interests). Clearly this is one person evading a block. I don't want to come back and become embroiled in a WP:SPI, so I'll let you take it from here. Thanks. Yankees76 ^Talk 14:38, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

The other accounts I'm referring to are:

• User: Peter Somerville
• User:Agendapedia (based on this edit [3]
• User:Bluidsports
• User:PC7705
• User:Buck on the range (based on this edit: [4]
• User:W Collum PhD (based on this edit: [5]

- you can also look through the accounts above and see they edit the same circle of pages.

thanks. Yankees76 ^Talk 14:45, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

User:Somethin' Else Talent (and socks thereof)

Just a quick heads up, as I noticed you blocked this user. A very similar named account, Setalent (talk · contribs) has been editing the same articles, though some months before this one. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 16:09, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Deletion

You deleted a page named "Personal brand management" saying that similar page exist named "Brand Management" The decision is yours but in my view both are different in terms of content and applicability in life.

Deletion- Scruff

I was wondering why this page was deleted! It was created to acknowledge the application Scruff! Whom Johnny Skandros the creator of Scruff gave us the go ahead as well it is similar to Grindr and you can look it up. This page was still in the works and needed updating. So I am wondering why it's deleted! And if this is gonna be deleted then why no delete all other APP articles like Grindr and anything else!

Deletion

You deleted the Motovario page, I didn't understood why. Can you please explain what was going wrong with it and restore the page so that I can make the necessary correction. I think it would be an important page, it is already availible in the italian Wikipedia, and it's a world famous company. Thank you

Debbiar (talk) 14:09, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

• You need to cite reliable independent sources that show how this company meets the notability standards of WP:CORP. NawlinWiki (talk) 14:24, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Can you restore the page so that I can add sources? Can I insert also sources in languafes different from english? Thanks Debbiar (talk) 14:57, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

• Now in your userspace at User:Debbiar/Motovario. Yes, you can use non-English sources. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:02, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

I added many different sources to the page User:Debbiar/Motovario, can you please check if everything is good for pubblication? Thank you Debbiar (talk) 09:07, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Page move?

Hello. I would like to move a page you have move-protected: Salman Khan (would like to move to replace the redirect Salman Khan (actor) (where it used to be) since I believe any search for Salman Khan should redirect to the dab page. (Salman Khan (educator) is on Time's 100 Most Influential list.) Is there any backstory you're aware of that would necessitate a Move Discussion about this, or may I move the article? (Trying to be informed and considerate of a fellow admin.) Thanks. —Eustress ^talk 21:19, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

• I think it's worth a discussion as to which Salman Khan, if any, should be on the non-dab page. I would do that before moving anything. The move-protect was because of prior vandalism and isn't relevant here. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:36, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion of Casey Buckley

I see the page was deleted under criteria A7, however, I see this is noted as a lower standard than that of notability. From WP:Music, the first criteria given to meet the notability standard:

"1. Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself.[note 1] This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries[note 2] except for the following: Any reprints of press releases, other publications where the musician or ensemble talks about themselves, and all advertising that mentions the musician or ensemble, including manufacturers' advertising.[note 3] Works consisting merely of trivial coverage, such as articles that simply report performance dates, release information or track listings, or the publications of contact and booking details in directories. Articles in a school or university newspaper (or similar), in most cases."

Multiple sources were used in this article, but I point to NJ.Com as well as the television broadcast clip as two separate and reliable independent sources providing non-trivial coverage of the musician's charitable efforts following Hurricane Sandy.

Thank you!

Acoustic2357 (talk) 00:20, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

• This doesn't satisfy me that Mr. Buckley is notable per WP:MUSIC. Instead, he was basically mentioned in news stories for writing one song. See WP:BLP1E. NawlinWiki (talk) 14:49, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

• My mistake, that certainly resolves the issue. Thank you for pointing that out. I'll work on some other pages in the meantime - people who definitely meet WP:BLP1E. Acoustic2357 (talk) 19:34, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

argyle social

Sorry I had three references to the software company by notable publications. It seemed to qualify as a notable, if regional, software company. Could you explain where it lacked notability? Thanks. Mindme (talk) 18:53, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

• I don't see the significant coverage by reliable independent sources. The only independent sources cited are #1 and #6, which are local coverage essentially just saying that the company obtained financing. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:16, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

• I had laid this out in the talk page before it was deleted

http://www.bizjournals.com/triangle/print-edition/2011/09/16/argyle-growing-in-social-media.html?page=all a rather in-depth article by a notable publication

http://www.newsobserver.com/2011/09/22/1509497/argyle-social-raises-12-million.html a notable publication about the financing

http://www.durhammag.com/blogs/durham-magazine-blog/Local-startup-Sharehammer-provides-sharing-economy-marketplace/ albeit brief mention by a local monthly magazine.

Any advice you could offer on what makes a CRM company notable would be appreciated. I'm trying to flesh out contestants identified by the CRM industry's CRM Idol award as notable. CRM Idol is a big award in the CRM startup industry.

Mindme (talk) 19:55, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

• That may be true about CRM Idol, but their site indicates that Argyle is just one of many nominees, and that the awards won't be final until December. Until then, this doesn't seem to indicate notability either. In general, look at WP:CORP. NawlinWiki (talk) 20:05, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

• I'm seeing for both of my write ups multiple secondary sources that are themselves notable (notable newspaper and magazines). Confused how either of these do not qualify. Where can one appeal? Thanks. Mindme (talk) 20:32, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

• • You can try Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion. I will caution you that the kind of local-interest and business-journal articles you have cited don't generally suffice for notability. See WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 20:34, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

The Luka State

Thank you for your swift removal of what I would actually deem to be a "notable" band / release. As mentioned in my comments about the addition I will be providing references and citations shortly. The band's independent release through Project Records has an International Online and UK Radio campaign kicking off on Monday morning. Just how many articles will I need to link to before you would deem this notable? After having read through the guidelines I would deem the Article to be Notable and shall be putting it back up again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wallywallyy2k (talk • contribs) 19:26, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

• Um, no. Notability doesn't mean "we're about to do a publicity campaign." It means that there is already coverage from reliable, independent sources. Please review WP:BAND and WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:38, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

So, as I said before, how many citations do i need before you feel that this is "notable" I can already provide 4 by UK newspaper websites... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wallywallyy2k (talk • contribs) 20:01, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

• It's not a matter of counting. If they are PR releases that the band or its publicist have generated, they're not independent. Please read WP:V before asking me any more "what do I have to do?" questions. NawlinWiki (talk) 20:03, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

They are independent citations from independent established outlets and not "pr". As I said before, I've actually read the guidelines and was aware that I would have to do something like this, I'd just like to know how many citations you personally would like to see to prevent you from pulling the page again — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wallywallyy2k (talk • contribs) 21:30, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Spambot range?

I noticed you blocked 178.124.96.0/19 for spambots, but I can't see any spambots (logged in or logged out) on that range with checkuser. It also appears that there will be a fairly large amount of collateral from this rangeblock. Could you clarify the reason or unblock it? Thanks! Reaper Eternal (talk) 21:03, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

120.36.192.0/22 is also confusing, since there are no edits from anybody from that range. Reaper Eternal (talk) 21:04, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

The spambot edits are being blocked by filter #271, but it's annoying to have to keep blocking the individual IPs (and this set of spam messages has been constant for months - it's the "Hello, My Dear Friends, Users-Forum" ones).

Schmidt

Hi would you mind putting the Wolfgang Schmidt page you just deleted in my user space? Sourcing is easy to come by and I can fix it. Also I suggest a prod would have been better than outright deletion.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 22:02, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

• Done, in your userspace at User:Obiwankenobi/Wolfgang Schmidt (serial killer). I'm quicker to speedy delete when the page is an unsourced BLP that calls someone a criminal. NawlinWiki (talk) 23:07, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Lugo

You speedily deleted an article describing Luis Lugo, director of a major Washington think tank. The article included links and references so I'm not sure why you applied the A7 tag or why you think he isn't notable... Limpinglory (talk) 01:32, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

• According to the article, he's the head of one project at a think tank, not director of the whole organization. I don't see how that meets WP:BIO. NawlinWiki (talk) 02:36, 19 September 2013 (UTC)
  • "Project" is bit of a misnomer in this case-- it used be called "Forum on Religion & Public Life." It's a prominent source of polling and data on religion. Besides, there are numerous reputable sources that refer to the individual which meets WP:BASIC: 1, 2, 3. I'll stop with the links but not because there aren't more, seems notable to me.

Speedy Deletion of Dr. fred P. Lewis

Hi, you CSD'd Dr. fred P. Lewis for A3 (Hoax) and G12 (Copyright). Could you explain this please? The copyright violation was cited to http://www.afweather.af.mil/library/biographies/bio.asp?id=10424. This is from a U.S. military website and are public domain, see Wikipedia:C#Works by the United States Federal Government. This site also indicates that it is not a hoax, unless I missed something in the article.

It needs to be retitled and the article probably needs the {{US Air Force}} template for attribution, but it meets notability requirements (see WP:MILPEOPLE, subject was a brigadier general). Could you look at this and restore the article? Thanks, GregJackP Boomer! 13:40, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

• I was probably influenced by the article's rather informal language: "Fred P. Lewis is the Overlord of weather"; "Ph.D Fred Lewis is said to be the last disciple of HADADRIMMON." I think a rewrite would be more appropriate than simply copying and pasting this material again. NawlinWiki (talk) 14:20, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

• Can you userify it for me? I'll rework it. Thanks, GregJackP Boomer! 14:26, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

afc

You were one of the 4 separate admins who deleted this article, and the one who finally protected it. It's now on AfC here (& has properly been declined) One of the problems with AfC is the lack of any explicit criterion for deleting submissions like this one. (If the individual were younger, I'd call it child protection,) Any ideas? IAR as "totally inappropriate for WP"?) I've sometimes called submissions like this "test page" but I don't think it's adequate for such an elaborate & persistent attempt. DGG ( talk ) 17:15, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

• Ms. Ahmad is 11 years old, so I think an "unsourced biography of nonnotable child" criterion might be appropriate. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:42, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

done; you are right; 11 is young enough. DGG ( talk ) 23:04, 19 September 2013 (UTC)

Romanian tennis vandals

Hey there, just wanted to say a big thank you for sorting out that mess. I find it really hard to comprehend that someone (or some people, who knows if it's just the one?) has gone to such hard work to create hoaxes, when that time could have been spent in doing something constructive. It actually beggars belief. Back in May, I caught out the following users creating similar hoaxes: Leshnavoka (talk · contribs), Libanorova (talk · contribs) and Svitochina (talk · contribs)... Sebarilova (talk · contribs) has gone on to continue this trait. Thanks for blocking! Jared Preston (talk) 16:22, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

• It's the same person, and he's been doing this for years. His ultimate goal is to insert himself (first name Sebastian, last name varies) into tennis articles. Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 16:23, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

How very sad! Jared Preston (talk) 16:27, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

I know. Blocked the ones you mentioned, as well as Elenkova (talk · contribs) and Pishotche (talk · contribs). Note that another characteristic of this vandal is putting tennis charts on the user pages of unrelated, usually dormant users as well as his own. Please let me know if you see any more of these. Thanks again, NawlinWiki (talk) 16:30, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

Sure thing, will do. Out of curiousity, when did this all start? Jared Preston (talk) 16:35, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

At least back to April 2010, possibly earlier. His real name is "Sebastian Vinatoru", but the edit filter blocks that, so he uses aliases now. NawlinWiki (talk) 16:39, 20 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello,

First of all, thanks a bunch for restoring my page. Second of all, as a new page-creator, I still have a lot to learn when it comes to creating pages. I was wondering if you could help me out with adding this image: http://www.lolearnings.com/img/players/dyrus.png to the infobox.

Opensooq

Just to keep you in the loop, as you have been involved; this article was reposted by its original author after input from you. I have to say that I did not wholly agree with you on this, and deleted it under CSD A7. He re-created it within his own userspace (Existed) from where it has been deleted as CSD G11 by another admin. Sorry if this appears to be going behind your back; I did see your previous involvement and made a judgement call.--Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 19:59, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

• What did you think about the news articles that the author had cited? I thought that they were at least enough to get the article to AFD. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:00, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
  • I did not feel so; I note that the same editor re-created the article yet again, and it has been deleted under G11 by yet another admin. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 14:46, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
• (talk page stalker)I looked at the article that is "buried" by the #REDIRECT a few minutes ago. One "news" reference was a press release. The other was an announcement of another company making an investment in this company. The third was not in English and I didn't bother reading a translation. If I saw this as a Wikipedia Article and the non-English reference was similar to the two English references, I would immediately PROD it and, if the PROD were contested without the article being significantly improved with respect to demonstrating notability, send it to Articles for deletion for discussion about its fate. Bottom line: This needs work to demonstrate that it is notable before moving to main-space or it has a high risk of being deleted through AFD. The author needs to be reminded that most companies do NOT meet Wikipedia's notability requirements. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 14:57, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
  • Okay, I guess our company should work harder on its references, like do interviews with business magazine or any online business website; to get trusted well known reference in English. Thanks for your time all. Existed (talk) 06:59, 25 September 2013 (UTC) 06:57, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Inappropriate external links

Is there a reason that Inappropriate external links is private? A lot of FP reports have come in from it lately, and non-admins can't see whether the links are legitimate or not. Jackmcbarn (talk) 21:41, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

• It was addressed at a single vandal, who coincidentally seems to have stopped. I've reconfigured it, significantly limiting it, to go after spambots instead. Let's see if that helps. NawlinWiki (talk) 02:36, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
  • The description says it only works in userspace now, but it's still blocking edits to articles (see Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives/Reports#Rad777z. Jackmcbarn (talk) 23:44, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
    • Changed the title back, added a warning, limited it further. Oddly enough, the same day that I changed the filter to apply to userpages only, the vandal it was aimed at resumed vandalizing in the pattern that the filter would have stopped. NawlinWiki (talk) 00:54, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

Hegel: "thesis, antithesis", etc.

Can you explain why editing for the philosopher G.W.F. Hegel has been disabled? It must be updated as soon as possible in order to remove (or flag) questionable content. The long-debunked explanation of Hegel's philosophy following a "thesis-antithesis-synthesis" structure is prominently featured on the page as it stands now. For a refutation, see, for example: In my opinion, these references should be deleted... or at least marked as deriving from a single source which is highly speculative and controversial. I thought this myth was gone for good, but anyone checking Wikipedia will find it alive, well, and unchallenged. JBurke01 (talk) 22:36, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

• The page is only protected against edits by new users - once you have had an account for 4 days and have 10 edits, you will be able to edit the page.

Nate Bennett-Fleming

Ufoboy90 (talk) 18:13, 26 September 2013 (UTC)Hey Nawlin, you deleted a stub article I put up for Nate Bennett-Fleming. I added the article, with a source from the Washington Post, because he's an elected official as a DC Shadow Representative (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_congressperson), and other historical shadow reps have Wikipedia articles. I have never met the man or seem him speak; no conflict of interest here. He's a notable politician, and was elected in a city-wide election. Consider reinstating the deleted material, put it in any form you like.

• He may well be notable, but the article was deleted as advertising/promotion: "He enjoys immense local support due to his vibrant, native status." Feel free to repost if you can do so in a neutral fashion, see WP:NPOV. NawlinWiki (talk) 18:24, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

You are mentioned at WP:HD in respect of an article that Videotraining (talk · contribs) created which was tagged for speedy deletion and which you deleted.

Supremo

The page related to the software Supremo has been speedly deleted for "A7. No indication of importance". It's a software used by over 55.000 users and cited by many forums, sites and some press sites.

It's well known because the public beta has been available to download for free for over a year. I don't understand the lack of indication of importance while many similas software - even in terms of diffusion - are allowed (i.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossloop).

A simple Google research would have shown that (https://www.google.it/?gws_rd=cr&ei=nqtFUsfDK6XV4gSUrYHADg#q=supremo+remote+desktop). I really don't get this deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Davide Costantini (talk • contribs) 15:58, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Russell Newell - speedy deletion query

You deleted my page 'Russell Newell' under the 'notability' rule. Russell has is a photographer and film-maker who has won several recognised awards in both the USA & UK for his work. He has been published many times and his work broadcast on one of the UK's main terrestrial TV channel (links to articles in UK national press were included). He has work that is part of a major museum collection in Cambridge University. His film and photography work in and around Peckham is published and well regarded, and is widely known about and recognised with awards. The article references his work mentioned in the 'Peckham' article. A recent mention of him can be found here for example:

Deletion of Richard Kennon

So you deleted my page after I made efforts to demonstrate I am the owner of the content and submitted an e-mail to permissions-en@wikimedia.org per instructions to demonstrate I am the owner of the content. Although I aplaud the efforts of Wikepedia to protect copyrighted material, it appears to me that some admins consider themselves all powerful. The Wikepedia instructions are NOT intuitive to say the least, and do not simply describe how to go about rectifying a similar problem. The annotation left on the talk page also said to click on the button to contest the deletion, however I could not locate the button. So, what do we do?
