MKD

Hey Beard, I saw your expertise are restricted to small English towns, so don't pose as an expert in a matter you don't know. Have you ever tried to get a Driver's license or join the military in Brazil or other Latin American country? I assume: NO! So... do REAL research. --Officer Boscorelli (talk) 17:20, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Blackpool images

Hi, I have just noticed the photos you uploaded of residential blocks to the article List of tallest buildings and structures in Blackpool. This is of great help, and in my opinion has vastly improved the article. Great work, thanks again. Stevvvv4444 (talk) 14:35, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Vemma revisited

On 13 Apr 2008, you left this message re Vemma.

After a "hiatus" from Wikipedia, largely spawning from taking the above personally, I'm back and desire to resume with editing other articles; I no longer have any vested interest in Vemma, nor am I any longer a rep as of July 2009; COI can be stricken as of this point. The whole idea of creating the article was to actually allow others to contribute to said article; given that Wikipedia is, of course, allowed for all to edit and contribute, providing other members with a chance to make said article "compliant". I admit and apologize about my "newbie errors".

However, please note that you stated to have "protected the page" and said MLM is "quite rightly, treated more harsly at AfD because they are immoral." Please note that statement quite possibly implied the presence of using personal POV and/or bias as a basis of determination to protect/remove the page. Wikipedia is designed to present facts for the public at large to decide for themselves whether Vemma is "moral" or not, or for example whether or not Enron is an ethical company, whether Bernard Madoff deserves to be condemned or praised, or if Adolf Hitler is a good or bad person; I can sit here and condemn Hitler all day on his wiki, but 1. It does affect NPOV in general and 2. there are people who might actually like Hitler. Therefore, if there are any restraints that prevent this article from being properly created or edited, I humbly request for you to release them. Thank you. -- Edwardw818 (talk) 10:56, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

  • Please try to be more succinct - references to Hitler, etc. are not needed. I suggest you create a draft article at User:Edwardw818/sandbox at raise the matter at deletion review. I shall e-mail you your text. (If you happen to see my message below, the difference is that Vemma had an AfD discussion but Eddsworld did not.)

Unprotection of Eddsworld article

Roughly two years ago the page on Eddsworld (an animated web series) was deleted and protected from recreation. Since then the series has been involved with the BBC, the World Wide Fund for Nature and shortly Mitchell and Webb (citations are available for each). I believe that this qualifies Eddsworld as a viable candidate for a Wikipedia article and hope you will unblock the page. TheTomSka (talk) 15:11, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

  • So why not link to the article? I have unprotected it and shall e-mail you the text. I note there is a Tom involved with the project - can you assure me that you have no COI? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:04, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

John F Fort

Hello, I added a page for John Fort which was rapidly deleted. I raised this page because I noticed that there was a reference on the Tyco International page to him, but that it linked to another John Fort (a long dead politician and was therefore wrong). Fort was a previous CEO and as he is referenced elsewhere I assumed that he was notable. I could just have removed the [[]] in the Tyco article but that didn't seem right. Did I create the new page incorrectly? GarthJones (talk) 13:04, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

  • Always provide a link to any article you are discussing! Creation was incorrect to the extent that you created something far too stubby. Re-create in User:GarthJones/sandbox. Only when the article has a proper assertion of notability, backed up with decent references, should you move it into the (article) namespace. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:11, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

WLC Architects

The page for WLC Architects was deleted and I am not sure why. WLC Architects is the firm that designed the building that LEED is based on and is widely recognized as a Green Building Architectural firm. They are the only firm mentioned by name in the USGBC written code. They also designed the first Public building using Staw Bale construction(http://www.cityoflancasterca.org/Index.aspx?page=92). With the 'Green' movement that is currently happening, I think that they are definately note-worthy for this. Perhaps the article itself was not complete enough, if this was the case I will expand it so it better explains the facts. Please let me know if this will be satisfactory. Thank you Benwiens (talk) 16:24, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

  • To be honest, I did notice a number of external links when I deleted the talk page. Why did you put them there instead of in the article? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 18:55, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

I was building the page up and not knowing the correct methodology for creating a page here, I just started adding content. I now know that it should be mostly complete before adding so I created the sandbox page and will build it up there.Benwiens (talk) 19:09, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Not an answer, but thought you might want to read my reply here. Could you say more precisely where this is (whoops, I see you provide co-ords!), as I may take a look next time I'm in the area. Carcharoth (talk) 19:15, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Dietrich Varez

I am about to create an entry for Dietrich Varez. It seems you deleted a previous entry in this name in 2007; from the note that must have been an appropriate action, probably removing a cut-and-paste lift from an online profile. My contribution is entirely new and is based on several published sources. However, my access to these original sources is (mostly) secondary to their reproduction (as facsimiles)on the web site of Mr. Varez. They appear legitimate. I have referenced both the original source and the online reproductions. I should add that I have never had any contact with Mr. Varez, other than owning two of his prints. I trust this new discussion will meet Wikipedia standards for a start-class article, as he is a well-known and influential artist in Hawaii and his work straddles both commercial and fine-art worlds there. Also his bio is not exactly routine. Let me know if I am not on sufficiently solid ground here. Thank you. Alawa (talk) 22:20, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Article for Rev. Dr. Geoffrey Black

I noted that you had deleted this article. I did not create it, but merely suggested it be created. He is the new GM&P for the United Church of Christ. I thought he was notable enough to be on Wikipedia as the previous General Minister and President was and the denomination has over 1 million members. It looked like Arcangel had moved the article about a month before and rearranged the title. Then in January you looked for the moved article and nothing was there. Granted, I was not satisfied with the article I saw because it seemed to be copied from the UCC website bio. Is there a way to recreate this page within Wikipedia standards? You can send me the text. My e-mail is enabled.claimman75 (talk) 03:50, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

File:KeysPark.jpg

I did not upload that image. I uploaded a different image with the same filename in 2007, the following year someone overwrote it with a completely different image, which is the one now on Commons -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:39, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

United States v. Ballin

Hi. I put in the work to bring WP:Article Incubator/United States v. Ballin up to spec. If you could take a look and see whether the article is fit to graduate to articlespace, that would be great! I'm not sure whether you can graduate the article, since you have edited on it in the past (though just a tiny bit). Still, since you moved it into the incubator, it would be good if you took a look. Thanks! —ShinyG 21:43, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

United States v. Ballin has graduated from the incubator.—ShinyG 00:31, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Commons for images

I echo a remark above: please, please, please upload images, directly to the Commons. For images from Geograph, use Magnus' tool which copies them directly from Geograph to Commons. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:33, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

  • I'm sorry but simply I do not understand the Commons or the Magnus tool you have recommended :( For some reason I find the process too confusing. I thought I was progressing by actually managing to upload but obviously am not --J3Mrs (talk) 20:10, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

So what is the difference between the upload process here and that on the Commons? As for Magnus' tool - what is difficult about copying a Geograph uri from your browser's adress bar into the form on Magnus' page? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 07:27, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

  • Because something is not a problem for you, please don't assume it is simple for me. I enjoy doing what I do on Wikipedia, not what anyone else wants me to do. --J3Mrs (talk) 09:51, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

I asked a specific question: what is the difference between the upload process here and that on the Commons? The question implied that you should at least try to upload to the Commons. Please answer my question: what is the difference? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:27, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

One very significant difference is the different copyright conditions that apply to images on wikipedia and images on Commons, although that obviously doesn't apply to images from Geograph. I'm afraid that I don't really see the problem here. And having to get a TUSC password to use Magnus' tool is just a PITA. Malleus Fatuorum 18:54, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Malleus, what problem? Do you mean you don't see why J3Mrs has such objections to using the Commons or you don't see why I am so insistent that free-use images should be on the Commons? Getting a TUSC password is a once-off operation. Given that uploading Geograph images via Magnus' tool is a lot easier than via the regular upload, getting a TUSc password is time well spent. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:05, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

I don't see why you're so insistent on uploading to Commons. I had a TUSC password once, but I lost it, and I can't be bothered to get another. Malleus Fatuorum 19:15, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Hello. It is almost a year later now from when you nominated me for a "Speedy deletion" or whatever it is.I was so annoyed, I didint even bother to comment back until now,and that was last october, it is now APRIL. I didint know any better at the time. It was like my first week. Not to be rude, but I would appriciate it next time if someone could tell me what I am saying is not important my first time making a mistake on my FIRST week. -- Androllercoaster (talk) 20:39, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

Robert Fourer

I noticed that you have deleted an article for Robert Fourer. Robert Fourer is a prominent scientist working in the area of operational research and management science. He is recognized as being the designer of the most widely used modeling language for mathematical programming called AMPL. Together with with David M. Gay and Brian Kernighan he was awarded 1993 ORSA/CSTS Prize by the Computer Science Technical Section of the Operations Research Society of America, for writings on the design of mathematical programming systems and the AMPL modeling language. Taking this into account I would like to request restoration of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcmlxxxi (talkcontribs)

  • The piece I deleted was simply not a bio. You have provided more of a bio in your message above than in the 46k bytes I deleted. I have e-mailed you the text - do not repost it! However if you actually write a proper bio of the guy with proper references, then it will probably stick. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 08:35, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
  • Thanks. I thought the old article was not substantional enough, but it turned out that one can write a book about Fourer based on it :). Now I see why it was deleted.

CoaXPress

Hello. It is some months later now from when you nominated CoaXPress for "deletion". The reason was that it was non-notable. No gnews or ynews hits for this term, and no gscholar or gbooks hits either. And indeed It was difficult to defend as there were no books and no publications on Coaxpress at that time as good industrial research is not published until it comes on the marked (but it is not because there are no articles that it is not important, in contrary, I have several articles on other subjects in high ranked IEEE journals and conferences, which were never implemented in a product). I think that you will now find more on CoaXPress as it is standardized by JIIA(Japan Industrial Imaging Association). Is there some possibility to reopen the discussion, as I think that CoaXPress has several technical advantages that it is valuable information for an Encyclopedia (even if the productions would stop now and the number of applications is limited).Xmaillard (talk) 13:37, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

User:Gabby77/uploads

Penny Mayes pointed out this user's misattributed Geograph images to me, and I've done a little bit of cleaning up – I've orphaned a couple that were already on Commons so that they can be deleted here, uploaded a couple more to Commons, and identified a bunch more source images on Geograph that I don't quite have the enthusiasm to move to Commons now. --bjh21 (talk) 16:09, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

  • I want to leave a few in place to show to Barry Hunter of Geograph. But I will deal with all of the Geograph rip-offs in due course. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 04:32, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

Sironta

Hi, I have uploaded in User:Marj9543/Sironta the new article that I have wrote about Sironta. Can you tell me if it is right now? If not, can you say me what do you miss in the article? Thank you. Marj9543(talk) 09:17, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

I think that the article is now correct. I have added referrences mentioning Sironta as an European Comission Project, to add notability. I have added new links, new PDFs, new text, new wikipedia links, etc. As C.Fred (talk) told me, I ask you (the deleting administrator) if it is sufficiently improved that it can go back into the main encyclopedia. Thanks again. Marj9543(talk) 10:33, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

  • I think you are essentially advertising and am certainly not going to move the article anywhere. The DRV discussion is still running. i will accept the decision of the admin who closes the DRV. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:20, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Request to restore and userfy old article

Since you were the deleting admin, not that it matters, can I ask you to restore Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages somewhere in my user space, please? I'm a Patroller at UESP and came across some old references to it on our site. I'd like to at least be able to view what the page was before it was deleted; the entire edit history might be interesting to see too. I don't know if there's a policy against keeping that type of page userfied here, but if there is, let me know and I'll move the information to my account on UESP.

Tobacco Marketing and African Americans

Hello RHaworth, this is an automated message from SDPatrolBot to inform you the PROD template you added to Tobacco Marketing and African Americans has been removed. It was removed by Closedmouth with the following edit summary '(prod is contested, please take it to afd instead if you wish to have it deleted (per WP:PROD))'. Please consider discussing your concerns with Closedmouth before pursuing deletion further yourself. If you still think the article should be deleted after communicating with the 'dePRODer,' you may want to send the article to AfD for community discussion.

Haiku Bootstrap Architecture deletion

I believe that the deletion of the Haiku Bootstrap Architecture article under G12 was uncalled-for.

Cloud Communications Alliance deletion

After further reviewing the notability guidelines, the proposed article Cloud Communications Alliance (which was deleted at your direction) has been improved (I hope) with third-party references, and it should be closer to suitability for Wikipedia. If you don't mind looking at the new version, it is sitting here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Tsger/Cloud_Communications_Alliance.

The intent is to create an article that meets appropriate criteria and is as neutral as possible, relying on third-party materials to outline the basics. If you still feel it does not pass muster, your feedback would be appreciated. Thank you ... and I apologize for any clumsiness on my part as I pursue this process.Tsger (talk) 21:49, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

  • Sorry re 2009 July, I usually do try to answer all messages here. I try to avoid discussions re bands because I cannot judge notability well. But even I can see that your draft is still short on references to reliable sources. At least a decent time has now passed since the AfD discussion so once you have found better references, take it to deletion review.

Deletion of Input/Output Control System (IBM)

I was going to add some references to Deletion of Input/Output Control System (IBM) and I saw at Input/Output Control System (IBM) that you had deleted it. Was that simply because it was missing references, or were there more substantive issues?

Okay, I had thought that your e-mail was a comment on the deleted article rather than the article itself. It has notihing to do with IOCS but is input to IOCP; I've started an IOCP page in my sandbox User:Chatul/I/O configuration program (IOCP) and want to be sure that I understand Wike conventions and customs before doing anything more permanent.

  • My apologies - I did not investigate enough. But I have a very good excuse: I never saw the three templates in an expanded state because this page is simply too <expletive deleted> big. It takes ages to edit and more than once saving my edit crashed. I now see that it is in category:Pages where template include size is exceeded. There is an obvious natural split into the five rural districts. I suggests you do that split immediately. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:34, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
  • Thanks - each of the lists appears in the 7 different districts eg Taunton Deane, South Somerset etc, but this list was put together as those that do this for other counties argued each county needed a list. There were no problems with "template include size is exceeded" when it passed FL in January this year.— Rod talk 15:45, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

HICX Solutions - Deleted?

This page has been unnecessarily deleted. It is valid content of a valid company registered at companies house, company number: 05282784 [Companies House Reference for HICX Solutions Ltd.]

I would request that it be added back. The content will be further enhanced with time and shouldn't be deleted just because it's not yet rich enough. There are various pages of companies on wikipedia, also small one's (e.g. Trace One), many other's could be listed, and there is no reason why this one should not be listed. I would request that you add it back as it's valid information.

Best regards, costasx —Preceding unsigned comment added by Costasx (talkcontribs) 11:23, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

  • It is registered at Companies House. So what? Does registration make a company notable? Try following this advice. (Someone must be stalking you or me - within minutes of your message above Trace One got prodded! And I agree with the prod.) — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:57, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Stephen J. Press

Hi RHaworth. I noticed you restored the Stephen J. Press article in January, but, in light of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dr. Stephen J. Press, I wasn't sure why. Was there a WP:DRV of the article somewhere? Jayjg (talk) 01:27, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

The actual restoration of the article was: "2009-12-29 00:36:32 Platinumphotographer (8,691 bytes) (moved User:Drsjpdc/Stephen J. Press2 to Stephen J. Press: this man is well known, and has made major contributions to our profession. Also, he seems to be writing everyone else's bios)". My restore of 2010-01-27 02:12:33 was just the 12 edits dated 2009-09-23 and restored "underneath" the existing article for the purpose of sock puppet checking of ModTheRod (talk · contribs · logs). See this and this. I did not notice that the article had been subject to AfD.
As I said, "I just do not want to get involved". Go ahead and delete or re-AfD as you wish. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 06:13, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Hologram therapy

Did you get a chance to read the talk page? I am detracting; not advertising. I am trying to stop the ignorance before it gets out of hand, although it is probably too late, and I find the idea of hologram therapy insulting to my intelligence, such as it is. People have a right to know what it is (a placebo) and what it is not (medicine). Heyzeuss (talk) 12:02, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

  • I have restored the article to User:Heyzeuss/hologram. We need phrases such as "practitioners claim" and "pseudoscience" in the first paragraph. Omit the list of athletes - counts as attack. But above all, provide references to reliable sources that say it is snake oil. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 17:21, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Ready to re-deploy, maybe. I used less friendly language, like pseudoscience. I also gave a reference for each athlete, as you suggested, although if it is too much of a ham-fisted attack, the names can go. Heyzeuss (talk) 14:29, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

  • If anything you have swung too far the other way and made the article too critical. The image of Shaq O'Neal smacked of cheap journalism - we must have an image even if it is not very relevant. Now, if you had an image of an athlete identifiably wearing an hologram, that would be different. Or a picture of an actual product. Try and find a couple more reliable sources which are critical. Then move the article back to hologram therapy. If it gets threatened with deletion, I will defend it. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 01:59, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

economics book - Deleted?

Why was my economics book deleted? I was the only author. I didnt request it to be deleted. Shabidoo (talkcontribs) 13:27, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your explanation. I just made a mistake and wanted to create the page at the ca.wikipedia.org and not at en.wikipedia.org

I will apreciate that you erase the english page because I'm not going to use it.

Sorry for my mistake and thanks again.

Hello, I recreated this page: Gongoozle. It isn't a wikipedia page, more like a soft redirect to wiktionary, but just FYI, kind regards, Captain n00dle\Talk 09:42, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

You stupid Roger W Haworth. Wikipedia is my website. I created it. I have your weird photo with lots of dandruff on my portfolio. You are a molto weirdo so let me put my non-fiction stuff on wikipedia. PathossKid (talk) 23:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

  • Wikipedia is not any one person's website. The only stuff you have posted is clearly fiction and should be published on one of your own websites. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 07:06, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

requirements for RfA

 

What is the requirements for adminship candidature? Only to have 2000+ edits? √Aleksa Lukic (talk) 17:40, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

  • Have you read the guide to requests for adminship carefully? Re edit counts, look at the graph. You seem to edit articles on diverse subjects which stands strongly in your favour. But I suggest you wait another three months before you apply. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 17:55, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Bring Flashforward Back- Deleted??

I created a page on Wikipedia called Bring Flashforward Back.

A day later it was deleted under "Speedy Deletion".

The page was fairly short as the fan campaign has only been around for a little over a month so efforts towards the show are limited as are information about the campaign.

The page was made to educate people on the fan campaign for the show Flashforward currently running called "Bring Flashforward Back" and the efforts being made to bring the show back for a second season.

Under section A3 it states that the reason for deletion is that the article only provides external links and no content for the reader.

The whole page is content educating the reader on the fan campaign.

There is no reason that the page should have been deleted.

Hey. You're comment is absolutely correct but could have had a little less bite. Just a suggestion; please don't be offended. Take it or leave it. OlYellerTalktome 13:19, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
