Moving electronic artists' articles
Hi Anthony, I see you recently moved a slew of Sigala song articles to more simple titles per the request of MaranoFan, after another user originally requested a move of one at WP:RM/TR. There has not been consensus to use only the producer of a song in the title of articles. There may have been local consensus on a few articles, but not that we should do this Wikipedia-wide—this really appears to be the opinion of one, or several editors. Just letting you know before you move an entire discography's worth of pages again—please tell the editors to gain consensus first. If I had seen the original request at RM/TR, I would have disputed it.  Ss  112   11:03, 1 January 2019 (UTC)

History of Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line
The history of Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line currently contains a mixture of redirect and article revisions. But that page also had some deleted revisions, so you should first move it elsewhere, to a title such as "Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line zxcvbnm". Then, "Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line zxcvbnm" should be deleted and have all of the revisions excluding the redirect and db-move revisions ( 15:05, 13 June 2011 (31 bytes), 17:03, 18 November 2014 (48 bytes) , 17:05, 18 November 2014 (218 bytes) , 02:10, 8 December 2017 (60 bytes) , and 02:21, 8 December 2017 (62 bytes) ) restored. Finally, "Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line zxcvbnm" should be moved back to "Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line". GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 00:24, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅ I have extracted the redirect and db-move edits and moved them to Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line (redirects). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:32, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

But there is still one db-move edit in the history of Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line, at 17:05, 18 November 2014. Please move that edit to Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line (redirects). GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 01:46, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅ Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:32, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

And now, someone has deleted Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line (redirects) momentarily after you have answered the above. Please restore that page and move it (without redirect) to Kalininsko-Solntsevskaya Line, where the redirects were originally at. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 17:05, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅. At 05:32, 8 January 2019 User:Risker deleted page Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line (redirects). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:43, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It's unclear to me what the point of a page entitled Kalininsko–Solntsevskaya line (redirects) was - all of this stuff could have been done using draft space so that there aren't weird things in article space - but the reason I deleted it was that it had what appeared to be a quite appropriate CSD tag on it at the time I was clearing out CSD. Risker (talk) 00:39, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I found those edits sitting deleted under a long non-deleted edit history. Those two histories were WP:Parallel histories, and in my experience in much history-merging such a situation is liable to accidents, if I must temporarily delete the non-deleted history (e.g. to split some edits off it), so I extracted the deleted edit history out from under and I put it elsewhere. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:44, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
 * No worries, Anthony. Just glad that it all wound up in the right place. I confess I avoid history merges because of how easily something can go astray. I can't see the point where I deleted, but I'm pretty certain it was a standard CSD G-6 template; if I'd realized you were in the process of the histmerge, I would have left things to your capable hands. Risker (talk) 05:51, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

FEMSA and Gorditas Doña Tota
There is still one more revision in the history of FEMSA about Gorditas Doña Tota that you forgot to move. Please fix this by doing the following: GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 17:58, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
 * 1) Move Gorditas Doña Tota to FEMSA, confirming deletion of the target page.
 * 2) Restore revision 576711269 at 12:04, 11 October 2013 (604 bytes) in the history of FEMSA.
 * 3) Move FEMSA back to Gorditas Doña Tota.
 * 4) Finally, restore the rest of the revisions for the FEMSA page.

Draft:Curtis Jones (footballer) - Redirect Deleted
It appears that you deleted this draft. Since the draft was accepted, what would have been at that title in draft space would (presumably) have been a redirect to article space. I am honestly a little puzzled about that deletion, and am wondering whether there is a policy or guideline that says that redirects from draft space to article space are deleted. I have understood that those redirects are left in place indefinitely. When I accept an Article for Creation (which is not as often as I would like, but that is the way it is), I leave the redirect alone and assume that it will stay there indefinitely. If I review a draft that is the same as an article, possibly because the author created it in both draft space and article space, I convert the draft into a redirect. I know that redirects from article space to draft space are deleted, but I understood that was a one-way rule. If there is a guideline about the deletion of redirects from draft space to article space, please provide me with a link. If we are both just guessing at what the policy is, we can take this discussion to Village Pump. Have I been making a mistake in allowing redirects from draft space to article space, or was there a special reason? Robert McClenon (talk) 22:51, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

Reconsideration requested: BBC investigation into pre-pubescent rape evidence failures
Hi Anthony, on Thursday you suddenly deleted my article BBC investigation into pre-pubescent rape evidence failures about the extremely serious and newsworthy topic of very young children who were raped being woefully failed by forensic investigators. Please clarify whether you believe my new draft of this article is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia. If you don't respond, I will assume you are satisfied with it. Tots & little ones matter! (talk) 18:46, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
 * At 08:25, 10 January 2019 User:Cabayi speedy-delete-tagged BBC investigation into pre-pubescent rape evidence failures as a copyright violation of https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-45335980 . Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:42, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It's not just me. has retagged the new draft and, even if this draft were to be improved further, it would still need copyvio-revdel to clear its history. At its current level of copyvio I would also retag as G12 if it weren't already.
 * , the fact that there's any copyvio in the draft shows that copy & paste has played too much of a role in its creation. Write in your own words.
 * At its heart, the problem here is that the draft isn't even recording a news event (contrary to WP:NOTNEWS), it's recording a news report with a single source. If it's truly significant or notable wouldn't some other news outlet have given it at least a nod of coverage? The situation isn't helped by the fact that, by username and edit history, is avowedly a single purpose account making no pretence of writing in a neutral encyclopedic way on a topic which is already hard to deal with. As pointed out, "Please also see WP:RGW; if it does not apply now, almost certainly will in the near future." Cabayi (talk) 05:40, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Cabayi, your assertion that "it's recording a news report " is not quite right. The news report's first sentence ends with the phrase "a BBC investigation has found.", so both it and my article were about the BBC's investigation. Naturally, the BBC's competitors would be unlikely to run a story about the findings of a BBC investigation, no matter how interesting or notable its competitors' reporters might otherwise find it.

1992 Men's World Ice Hockey Championships
First off I should say it would have been courteous to allow me to comment before moving the article back. Second, there is now a discussion created at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Archive73 for a discussion. Note that while I haven't gotten around to moving them all, the proper name is "Ice Hockey World Championship," so there was no need to contest the move. While I have not moved the other articles to match this initial move, that was only a matter of time and effort. Kaiser matias (talk) 02:27, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of SEFA


The article SEFA has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Article has never had any sources and has been flagged as such since 2012. A recent search suggests no further evidence of notability is forthcoming."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ~TPW 22:13, 17 January 2019 (UTC)

Spider-Girl (Mayday Parker)
I came up with a request to move Spider-Girl (Mayday Parker)’s history to Mayday Parker. But I had no consensus/ objection on it for a long while so I was wondering if an admin like you could do it since you movied Peni Parker for me. Jhenderson 7 7 7  23:17, 21 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Spider-Girl (Mayday Parker) was started at 00:16, 4 March 2004 and seems never to have been moved, because its log is empty; around 26 January 2012‎ its page length is running at around 39700 bytes, but between 01:11, 26 January 2012‎ and 18:53, 7 March 2012‎ some sort of hiccup happened, until at 18:53, 7 March 2012‎ User:ClueBot NG reverted it to as before. Mayday Parker has consecutive 4 text edits (from 01:33, 26 January 2012‎ to 01:46, 26 January 2012) with page length running at about 29400 bytes, and is WP:Parallel histories with Spider-Girl (Mayday Parker); and the rest of Mayday Parker's history seems to be redirects. There seems to be no need to move edits about between histories here. As regards an ordinary page-move, is she more known as Mayday Parker or as May Parker or as Spider-Girl? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:11, 22 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Well her own past comic books titles mostly use her as Spider-Girl in titles. But one issue is there is more than one Spider-Girl too. See Anya Corazon. Another issue she has referred to herself as Spider-Woman recently within the comics. So Spider-Girl is not her only code name. Hence why I believe we should use the civilian name.  Jhenderson  7 7 7  14:40, 22 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Or leave the page at Spider-Girl (Mayday Parker)? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:49, 22 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Well usually with comic book related articles. If they use more than one alias. For example: her using both Spider-Girl and Spider-Woman. Then we just use the civilian name. Just like Anya Corazon and a whole lot of others. Jhenderson  7 7 7  20:18, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Cecily Jordan Farrar
I saw that the redirects were restored and you declined to merge the Cicely Jordan Farrar page with the newer page. I read the reason, and understand why the history may not be appropriate. My thought it would just be far to the old work, and could even allow reverts if my attempt was too radical.

I built the new version from scratch using since the piece had wandered so far afield. I wanted to ensure that the article about the person remained and wasn't subsumed into a totally different topic, which is a legal case. My goal is simply to craft an article that refers to Cicely Jordan Farrar and her notability directly. I definitely tried to pull out as much of the information as I could from the original history, as well as doing a lot of additional research.

Knowing nothing about articles being shifted into redirects,
 * I voiced a concern in talk: Cecily Jordan v. Greville Pooley dispute
 * It was suggested by Theroadislong that I create a Draft:Cicely Jordan Farrar, which he thought might not qualify due to lack of references.
 * I took him up on the suggestion, and built the draft
 * I then asked and then asked Theroadislong look and comment on the draft. He did (this is in the draft history). He said he was fine with it, I just needed to request an admin removal of the redirect.
 * This is where I probably majorly messed up: I just pasted the article into the redirect, which had the same title.

What do I do next? Request administrative removal of the redirect that was replaced? Is this something you can do or I can do? Is there anything else I need to do that I'm unaware of? Any help you can offer would be much appreciated, and I apologize for the inconvenience. Wtfiv (talk) 02:18, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * In "Request administrative removal of the redirect that was replaced", does "the redirect" mean page Jordan-Pooley-Farrar affair, or what? Do you want me to move a page to another name, and the move is blocked by a redirect? If so, what is the name of the page is to be moved to what name? Or what is to be done? (See Requests for history merge.) Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:46, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

I'm requesting that the redirect page that directs Cecily Jordan Farrar to Cecily Jordan v. Greville Pooley dispute be deleted. That way, the two articles are separated and both can be found separately.Wtfiv (talk) 06:15, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅ I have deleted page Cicely Jordan Farrar. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:19, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * , I have restored the history. I had already declined the speedy deletion and you did not provide any policy based reason here or on my talk page as to why the history of this redirect should be deleted.  You recreated it right after it was deleted just with a different target.  If that is what you wanted all you needed to do is change the target of the redirect.  ~ GB fan 11:19, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

and  Thank you for restoring the history. I think that is fairest to the article, as my intention wasn't to erase its history in spite of my "bold" revision.

The redirect issue was complicated by a conflict of editors and many people making rapid changes in a short time. (I'm surprised by how many people jumped in on a topic I think is actually quite esoteric). I didn't realize the link that was nuked was actually a redirect based on a spelling change (Cicely instead of Cecily). So, I thought it was the original link, not a new one. But this new one went to the wrong place. Once it was deleted, Google search went to a blank page. That's when I understood what happened. So I rebuilt it and replaced the redirect to the right article.

The whole process was very messy, and I apologize if the replacement seems to have wasted your time. It didn't, as all the redirects that the article generated got very confusing. (I think there were at least three generated in the heat of other people's excited editing debate.) Your multiple interventions has helped sort things out, and now the articles work like they should, the histories are back, and the redirects are okay. I don't think it could've happened without you raising the issues and stepping in in the first place. I appreciate both your patience and your attentive response as an admin. So, thanks again!

Alan Vaughan-Richards
First of all, the potential sock put a tag of notability, I removed it because nothing was likely to be done and told the person to put in in afd, if they have questions about it. Second, you have to remove the word of COI, that is the most useless accusation I have ever heard, I do not even give a crap about the guy. The potential sock did not read the article or the references, AVR is more of a scholar than an architect as stated in the references. Again, I demand the article to be put back and placed in AFD for discussions and the charges of COI removed.really, this place is beginning to go to the dogs.Alexplaugh12 (talk) 10:12, 23 January 2019 (UTC)

Coming from this section on Fastily's talk page, Wumbolo, why do both Talk:Star Wars: The Last Jedi/Archive audience response and Talk:Star Wars: The Last Jedi/Archive audience response 2 exist? Also, did you read the "How to preserve this page when we are done" discussion involving GoneIn60, Swarm, Alaney2k and Matthew hk and myself? Having these additional archive boxes, which are separate from the main archives, might be confusing to some. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 23:37, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment/Question – I am glad that the discussion was moved to an archive subspace of the main article, so thanks for that! Is it also possible (and permissible) to move the draft itself along with its revision history to Star Wars: The Last Jedi/Archive audience response, or is that a violation of article namespace? It would be nice to preserve that as well, because not all changes were discussed on the talk page. --GoneIn60 (talk) 04:00, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
 * For clarification, I'm referring to preserving Draft:Star Wars Last Jedi audience response. Thanks. --GoneIn60 (talk) 04:03, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Draft or talk page content is not permissible in the mainspace. --Izno (talk) 13:05, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
 * , thanks for clarifying. I noticed that the result of this talk page move was to a subspace (or subpage) of the mainspace, out of view from the general public. Does that make a difference, or is it a hard and fast rule that you're referring to? It needs to be archived somewhere, and if someone's userspace is the only option, then so be it. --GoneIn60 (talk) 20:57, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
 * My rule is basically hard and fast. If you are attempting to archive it somewhere, it can be archived in the talk namespace e.g. as Talk:Star Wars: The Last Jedi/Archive audience response/Draft. --Izno (talk) 22:20, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'd be okay with that. Anywhere is better than nowhere. Thanks in advance! --GoneIn60 (talk) 05:45, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
 * GoneIn60, Talk:Star Wars: The Last Jedi/Archive audience response 2 should be deleted. It's just an earlier version of Talk:Star Wars: The Last Jedi/Archive audience response, and is not needed. I'll ask an admin to delete it. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 23:24, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

Nick O'Teen
I figured I'd ask you what this refers to instead of just going straight to WP:RFD. I found this when looking for redirects with a broken anchors in the redirect tool for the nicotine article and I noticed that you created the page.  Seppi  333  (Insert 2¢) 22:41, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Nick O'Teen was a cartoon character who appeared in anti-smoking literature. He is described in the "In media" section of this old edit of the page Nicotine. See also https://comicvine.gamespot.com/nick-oteen/4005-67121/ . Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:04, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Hmm. That seems like something worth mentioning in Nicotine if there's WP:RS-quality sources which cover that. Unfortunately, that material isn't cited in the old revision, so I don't know if it's notable or not.

2019 Indigenous Peoples March Incident
I moved it back because it was an exceptionally bad and possibly defamatory title, and there was consensus among pretty much all participants to have this as an interim rename. The argument for deletion was not that it had a bad title, but underlying issues in whether it should be merged or not.--Pharos (talk) 07:50, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
 * My move at 05:19, 26 January 2019 was requested by User:Jax 0677 at WP:RM/TR: page should match the AFD title, and should not be moved during such a discussion. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:29, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
 * It was also listed as a "uncontroversial technical move" which was incorrect. There was overwhelming consensus against the old "MAGAkids" name at the talk page and AfD (including from the original author), and this is an extremely high profile article with a title that had serious BLP issues.  I think that countervails the comparatively minor issue of AfD title consistency.--Pharos (talk) 17:30, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

Undelete please
RE: National Defense Strategy (United States), I pulled one paragraph verbatim from what I believed was a US Government document and thus NOT copyrighted, but public domain. While it turns out it was not an official US Govt definition of what an NDS was, this is ridiculous. All of the history is gone. It was tagged for speedy deletion one minute, and 8 minutes later deleted, giving me no opportunity to remedy the page. The history is all wiped away and I must recreate it from scratch now. Blindly following bots is ridiculous and giving an author no chance to reply before a speedy deletion is exceptionally unwelcoming and does not promote the mission of Wiki, but serves to dissuade future contributions. Please undelete this page and allow me to edit it. I see the history is hidden from me as well, so I'd have to completely reconstruct it which is ridiculous. Please undelete.

Category:Cenozoic horses
Hi Anthony

You deleted Category:Cenozoic horses with the rationale "This page is unneccesary", then restored it, then deleted it again.

However, the category remained populated with 5 subcats ... and "This page is unneccesary" I not a valid criterion for speedy deletion.

I have not formed a view either way about the merits of the category, but if you want to delete it, please take it to WP:CFD. -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 02:53, 27 January 2019 (UTC)

Unisound
Hello. I see that you have moved Unisound out of draft after its author requested it as an uncontroversial technical move. This page was moved to draft last week as "not ready" and doesn't seem to have improved, so I think it may need discussion first. The existing links to Unisound are about a recording studio and should lead to Dan Swanö, not the Chinese company, hence the previous redirect. Certes (talk) 10:44, 29 January 2019 (UTC)

Scone
Hope all is well. Recently you performed a move on Scone, Scotland. You said you were responding to a WP:RM/TR request, which I checked out and anyone can see that the request was wrongly entered as 'uncontroversial'. Also, in your move you claimed to be acting as an administrator based on that request, however given that you voted on a previous move request on that page, albeit a long time ago, you can be construed as WP:INVOLVED. The claims that the earlier move by myself last year was unsupported is not accurate, as can be seen in the article's talk page where I posted and cited valid reasons. Essentially, as you will see, the argument was that 'Scone, Perth and Kinross' title is exceptionally ugly and confusing, as it appears to be a list of three settlements, Scone, Perth, Scotland, and Kinross; and Scone is reasonably well known outside of Scotland, or has claim to be, so it is perfectly acceptable even with the guideline cited to use ', Scotlamd' for disambiguation. Maybe you are right that the other name might be preferential, but at this stage it requires wider discussion and scrutiny. Surely you agree? Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk ) 15:03, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
 * That discussion was closed on 04:02, 10 August 2008 -- over 8 years ago. In my experience as a boy living in England, "scone" primarily meant the baked item. My first knowledge of the place Scone in Scotland and the Stone of Scone came via school history lessons. To me, 'Scone, Perth and Kinross' is more precise, because it says which district of Scotland it is in, to those trying to find the place. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:41, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Do you have any view on my 'three settlement' objection, or any precise reasons why Scone, Scotland doesn't cut it? I'm not saying either name is perfect or perfectly flawed, but I can't get over the fact that it looks like an article on three settlements being considered as one. It's those bureaucrats giving such ill-considered names, they should have just annexed Kinross-shire to Perthshire, it was hardly worth changing the name! Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk ) 15:54, 3 February 2019 (UTC)


 * I suppose that Scone, Scotland would work, if there is only one place named Scone in Scotland. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 16:25, 3 February 2019 (UTC)


 * I believe there is only one, ans certainly if there is some farmstead somewhere on some 25 inch OS I can't imagine it competing for primary usage. Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk ) 16:50, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry I didn't notice that you had posted a comment on the talk page about this but I'd note that the others in Category:Populated places in Perth and Kinross don't use Scotland (other than Perth its self) and you're move brings it outside of the rest of the Scottish settlements. I started a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (geographic names) but there hasn't been much discussion on that recently. And Anthony didn't use his tools in a way that violates WP:INVOLVED, the only reason admin tools were required is that you moved it twice meaning that the original title had (Scone, Perth and Kinross) had been edited, meaning it had to be deleted.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 21:13, 12 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Crouch, if you needed an old redirect deleted, which my clumsiness apparently left apologies, that is a different question from posting a controversial move as a technical request. I believe WP:G6 is the correct process these days, though as you can tell I'm semi-retired and not very active. I'm sure that Anthony would not have completed the move if you'd presented the matter accurately or if he remembered that he had participated in an earlier conversation (I know from direct experience that ArbCom are happy to consider that exact thing, forgetting you had participated in a move vote and then movinh the page as an admin, as a violation of WP:Involved...at least if it suits them). Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk ) 21:28, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I would not have posted the move request at RMT had I known that there had been a discussion on it.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 21:32, 12 February 2019 (UTC)


 * We all make mistakes, me being no exception (as you pointed out). It's no biggie. Deacon of Pndapetzim ( Talk ) 21:36, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

 * I'm sorry but I must ask you once again to revert this change, which has not been discussed in a formal RM discussion. Before 24 January, the article had a longstanding stable titles of "Boy Scouting (Boy Scouts of America)", which should not have been changed casually. I don't know why some editors want to avoid having an RM discussion, but I have suggested that twice on the article's Talk page, and some people seem to prefer submitting repeated "technical requests" without opening a formal RM. I strongly suspect that "Scouts BSA" is not the WP:COMMONNAME, and I have said that twice on the article's Talk page. In such a case, there should be an RM discussion if someone wants to move an article to a different name. —BarrelProof (talk) 12:13, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

Your Deletion Of ERA Prometheus Article
Hi Anthony Appleyard!

This article should not have been deleted for Unambiguous advertising or promotion (G11) because the citations substantiate the claims in the article. The neutrality is supported by a plethora of verifiable third-party *QUOTES* (not my words) from the New York Times and Vogue magazine.

The tag of G11 for speedy deletion was clearly heavy handed as the page was NOT *exclusively* promotional as it discusses the factual democratization of the tourbillon mechanism from the brands POV. Furthermore, the article does not need to be "fundementally rewritten" because it was already going through rewrites as seen on the history of edits. This action in and of itself shows "the content could plausibly be replaced with text written from a neutral point of view" as edits were already being made SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS ISSUE.

Given that this page prima facie fails to meet G11 content for prima deletion, it looks like the "Wikipedia:Deletion guidelines for administrators" wasn't followed.

Also...there was *no discussion* in the Talk Page and/or a justified "advert" placed by you. It was simply tagged for speedy deletion one minute, and 25 minutes later deleted, giving me no opportunity to remedy the page. I must recreate it from scratch now.

Failing to follow "Wikipedia:Deletion guidelines for administrators" and giving an author no chance to reply before a speedy deletion is exceptionally unwelcoming and does not promote the mission of Wiki, but serves to dissuade future contributions. Please undelete this page and allow me to edit it.

I would like to continue to be a contributing member to the understanding and fair community of Wikipedia. Izazii (talk) 22:11, 18 February 2019 (UTC) As regards "democratization of the tourbillon mechanism", to most people $999 USA (as stated in the article) (nearly $1000) is a big sum of money. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:22, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
 * The tourbillon mechanism in watches is described at page Tourbillon. The rest of article ERA Prometheus is advertisement for a particular brand of tourbillon watches, whether its content is provable or not. Sorry.

@Anthony Appleyard

The democratization of the tourbillon is cited by The NY Times and fashion blog Coolector.

These are straight from 3rd party sources.

At best there should be a chance to amend the article as criticism that it’s not really “affordable”.

Give the opportunity to continue to make edits.

All the sources come from verifiable 3rd parties.

Please reverse so I can make edits. You already admit notability with "whether the content is provable or not".

Why was there never an attached "advert" tag?

Please advise.Izazii (talk) 09:26, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Page ERA Prometheus was speedy-delete-tagged at 21:10, 18 February 2019 by User:Power~enwiki as "Requesting speedy deletion (CSD G11)", that is, "This article may meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion because in its current form it serves only to promote or publicise an entity, person, product, or idea, and would require a fundamental rewrite in order to become encyclopedic.". If I undeleted it and called AfD on it, the verdict would certainly be "delete as advertisement". "Democratization of the tourbillon" would seem to mean "making tourbillon watches available to the general population", with a meaning similar to "advertizing", but the $999 that you mentioned is still a lot of money. A short paragraph inserted into page Mechanical watch would be enough. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:48, 19 February 2019 (UTC)


 * I'm not trying to be a pain Anthony, I understand. But User:Power~enwiki was being excessively heavy handed as the article is NOTABLE for 1. being the most crowdfunded tourbillon watch in the fashion industry and 2. (arguably) leading to the "democrization of the mechanism." These two points in and of itself necessarily meet the WP:Notable and deserve an article of its own. It is for this same reason why you have many stand alone watch models as seperate entities, they are notable in of itself in their industry. There does not exist a requirement to make a fundamental rewrite. An "advert" tag and a call to action to correct the language would have been sufficient. I ask for the benefit of the doubt that this article is noteworthy, can easily be salvaged with proper edits that were currently ongoing, and that you please undelete and call AfD on it.Izazii (talk) 11:06, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Roslyn, pawnship
Hello, Anthony. This is a heads up about some issues.

Earlier today, you performed a move for Roslyn (compiler), which was effectively a revert, made at the request of an anonymous user, to back out a change that I made the day before.

Unfortunately, I think by doing so, you were being used as a tool of sorts by the anonymous user in question.

It's clear—at least to me as a result of the last couple of days—that the anonymous user is upset with some edit I made to the article Microsoft .NET strategy and is now trawling through all edits I've made in that area and reverting them in some sort of streak arising from a personal grudge related to whatever thing he or she took issue with. You can see this in the edit history of the aforementioned Microsoft .NET strategy article. The anonymous user has more or less stonewalled on all changes I've made, to the point of ignoring unambiguous MOS guidelines and even going so far as replacing half a paragraph of prose I'd written with his or her own unproofread words containing obvious grammatical errors while simultaneously suggesting that any changes to the intro paragraph need to be accompanied by a justification from WP:LEAD before those changes are made or accepted. (They don't; that's not how it works.)

As far as the Roslyn (compiler) article title goes, the reason he or she gave is that '"Roslyn (compiler)" [...] is nickname used by the product's fans only.' This is verifiably untrue; the subject is widely referred to by the name I moved it to ("Roslyn") in both casual and formal use. (This is even acknowledged in the article itself now and prior to the move, which describes the subject as being "better known" as "Roslyn".) ".NET Compiler Platform" seems to be the used only within a subset of some of Microsoft's technical documentation related to this topic. Most articles written on the subject refer to it in their title refer to it as Roslyn, and even its URL reflects this.

Aside from that, the anonymous user made the request to "revert [as an] undiscussed move", but the user hasn't actually tried to open up a discussion—or done anything else to suggest that this is anything other than another act in the series following from the personal grudge I described above.

-- C. A. Russell ( talk ) 04:29, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I have moved it back to Roslyn (compiler). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:53, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi Anthony.
 * Okay, I stopped reading the above when I read "personal grudge". Sure, I disagree with his editing, but I have a reason: WP:NOTBROKEN. And yes, I did track his editing to .NET Compiler Platform but for a very simple reason: It seemed strange to me that the article should have this name. We are in a dispute. Let's not label each other with accusation of grudge or whatnot. He made a bold edit, I requested a revert, and you, an honorable agent of Wikipedia, assisted me in a process that is WP:BRD.
 * But I am going to discuss contents here, not his person. It is simple: The burden of proof that "Roslyn" is the most common name, is on the person who makes the allegation. Can I see some proof to the effect that "Roslyn" is in widespread use?
 * Of course, I am no longer sure entering any kind of discussion with this person is of any use, now that he has resorted to labeling and personal attack without provocation. But... just between you and me, if I were an admin and saw one of the dispute parties coming to my talk page and badmouthing the other dispute party, obliging him would be the last thing I do.
 * 37.254.85.6 (talk) 10:56, 24 February 2019 (UTC)


 * As I pointed out above, the Roslyn claim did not originate from me. Again, as I noted above, that claim is one that the article itself had carried in its intro sentence, which described the subject as being "better known" as Roslyn.  I did a spot check, confirmed that "Roslyn" is how it's consistently referred to (in both casual and official use, as I mentioned above), found that there was an existing source from the article that corroborated this, moved that citation nearer to the claim itself, and moved the page per WP:COMMONNAME.


 * I'm also not going to spend significant energy refuting other misleading or outright untrue assertions. Enough of my time has been wasted by that sort of thing in the last 1—2 days.  There's now an open issue about this at Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring


 * -- C. A. Russell ( talk ) 17:56, 24 February 2019 (UTC)


 * The rename request is from you, the "WP:COMMONNAME" claim is from you and so the burden of proving it is on you. And more importantly, the accusation of "personal grudge" is from you. (And how can I have personal grudge when we met two days ago?) Face it: You are wrong and in denial.

International School of Temple Arts
Nearly a year ago you moved International School of Temple Arts to Draft talk:International School of Temple Arts. I recently edited the draft to add some citations and expand the content. Both pages are now existing. A Wikipedian who had temporarily argued for deletion (User talk:Quek157) has dropped out of Wikipedia. I hope you will not beat-me up for violating wikipedia rules and I hope that you will not delete International School of Temple Arts, but will instead delete Draft talk:International School of Temple Arts so that Talk:International_School_of_Temple_Art can be cleaned-up. --Ben Best:Talk 13:30, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Before I do that, queries arise:
 * Do you want me to history-merge Draft:International School of Temple Arts into International School of Temple Arts?
 * I still feel that the article needs to be renamed :: given a name "International School of Temple Arts", I would have expected the article, or the organization which it describes, to be generally about the type of paintings and sculptures found in Indian temples, but it seems to be only about sexual matters.
 * Article International School of Temple Arts still looks very advertisory.
 * I am unwilling to delete Draft talk:International School of Temple Arts, as it contains an important relevant discussion.
 * Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:32, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I am not sure what a "history-merge" is, but your implied suggestion on point 4. to Draft talk:International School of Temple Arts onto the Talk page of International School of Temple Arts seems very reasonable to me.
 * You might as well say that the Roman Catholic church need to be renamed the Italian Catholic church, or simply the Catholic church. Or that the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints needs to be renamed the Mormon Church. Or that Tesla as the name of a car should not be named after a person or an electrical technology. You are describing a personal impression, but the actual name of the organization is International School of Temple Arts (ISTA), and if an encyclopedia is to report on an organization, it should do so by using the actual name of the organization. Thousands of people have done ISTA trainings/workshops all over the world under the official name of the organization (look at upcoming ISTA events scheduled). My impressions about the name the ISTA organization has chosen for itself is like ceremonies the ancient Egyptian priests would perform in their Temples. "Art" doesn't necessarily mean painting and sculpture, it can include music, dance, etc. -- and more generally "art as opposed to science", which could include ceremonies of various kinds, such as occur in ISTA. I will try to find out why the name ISTA was chosen, but what is most relevant to this discussion is that that is the actual name of the organization, and it is important to use than name even if your opinion is that the organization has been misnamed. An encyclopedic entry on ISTA or any other organization should not be written by calling it some other name.
 * The article looks purely descriptive to me, except for the very first sentence. Would it be better to say "which attempts to promote sexual healing and healthy attitudes towards sex" rather than "which promotes sexual healing and healthy attitudes towards sex"? Although I think for most participants ISTA succeeds in achieving its goals, results don't always follow intentions. Drug rehabilitation programs often fail to rehabilitate.
 * Thank you for expressing yourself so reasonably, and for taking me seriously. --Ben Best:Talk 06:02, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Your lack of an answer makes me wonder if you have forgotten this subject. I would hope that you have decided to allow the International School of Temple Arts page to stand. I have offered to change the first sentence to make the article less promotional. However, Talk:International School of Temple Arts indicates that the page was previously deleted, referring to Draft talk:International School of Temple Arts. I request and suggest that the Draft talk page be moved to the Talk page of the International School of Temple Arts page. --Ben Best:Talk 05:05, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * If that is what the organization is called, and if the subject is noteworthy, it may as well stand, as long as the organization's purpose is stated prominently in the first paragraph. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:45, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I have reworded the first paragraph to make the article less promotional. I believe that the world-wide workshops and many participants in those workshops, as established by the citations, show that ISTA is noteworthy.--Ben Best:Talk 20:29, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Just a quick note to inform you that I edited the Redirect Page John Serry to serve as a Disambiguation Page as per the observations found during the page's creation on Wikipedia Talk (See here Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/John Serry ). I hope that this is OK. The page now serves to disambiguate searches for each of the two musicians who published compositions and recordings using the same name --John Serry. I also attempted to repair those links made in other other articles to John Serry which should be directed to John Serry Jr. I hope that this is also OK. Feel free to let me know if this is problematic in any way and I shall be happy to restore the redirect for you. Many thanks in advance for your kind and thoughtful assistance and best wishes for your continued editorial success on Wikipedia!

Not sure why you speedily deleted my new page for Josephson Engineering
Hi Anthony, Added a new page less than 24h hours ago about a significant mic manufacturer and inventor named David Josephson (page was Josephson Engineering ). It contained a few references to independent / 3rd-party articles that indicated some of the significance of the firm; I was planning to add more but ran out of time last night. I'd appreciate restoring this and allowing it to be developed with a bit of time. I do not understand why this firm would be considered less significant than some of the existing mic manufacturers who have wikis, seeing as Josephson have been manufacturing and providing OEM services for numerous companies for 30 years, have patents, and the founder is the vice-chair of the microphone technical division of AES-- you can't get more central to the contemporary world of microphone development than that!

Proposed deletion of Alk-


The article Alk- has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Wikipedia is not a dictionary, this page only describes the definition of a prefix"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Mini Ladd
I noticed you recently deleted Mini Ladd per WP:G4 because it had been deleted at AFD before. But numerous reliable sources exist and were cited in the article that did not exist when it was deleted at the last AFD almost 3 years ago, so I suspect it was not eligible for deletion under G4, as it was not "substantially identical". But given that you presumably disagree, I'm interested in hearing your explanation. IntoThinAir (talk) 13:25, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * At 04:58, 13 March 2019 User:JalenFolf speedy-delete-tagged it with comment "Actually, forget it. This is not an improvement since the last AfD.", Anthony Appleyard (talk) 16:57, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * And you agree with this conclusion why? I just checked a cached version of the article and all 4 of the sources did not even exist when the last AFD was closed in April 2016. Thus the article is clearly at least a slight improvement since the last AFD, contrary to JalenFolf's claim. IntoThinAir (talk) 17:18, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

Deletion of Charlie Bresler page
Hi Anthony,

Hope you're well.

I'd like to provide full disclosure here to explain why I don't believe there is a conflict of interest in this article.

I am an admirer of effective altruism and so this brought me to Wikipedia to see which organizations, people etc. are featured. I found that Charlie did not have an entry on here so I wanted to fill this gap. I have never spoken to or met with Charlie, although I do admire his work. I'm not and have never been an employee or volunteer for the organization and I am a self-employed EFL teacher so I don't work in their industry either. I have written a blog for the organization: https://www.thelifeyoucansave.org/blog/id/1479/minimalism-and-effective-altruism and a supporter story: https://www.thelifeyoucansave.org/take-the-pledge/supporters-stories/id/1473/an-intuition-worth-following because I admire the work of Peter Singer.

If you have any questions about the above, I'm happy to answer :)

Hi Anthony,

Thanks for your reply.

I've looked over the article and am unsure what parts of the article constitute advertising. For example, there's no use of positive adjectives to inject opinion into the article and I believe everything mentioned in the article is a fact delivered without bias or hyperbole. I'm new to Wikipedia, so it's possible I'm just missing something obvious. If you can offer any advice on how to amend the article to make it a better fit for Wikipedia, I'd really appreciate it.

Alan Tafoya (actor)
Hi Anthony. Would you mind taking a look at this article? is trying to create an article which was previously deleted via AfD (see WP:THQ for more details). The original AfD was from 2016, so it's possible things have changed since then. You've already restored and hist merge some of the history of the older version into this new one; so, I'm assuming you felt that working on a new draft would be OK. The creator didn't submit it for review via WP:AFC, and moved the page himself into the mainspace; I think this is based upon the misunderstanding that this means the page will be given an AfC-type review. I was going to revert the move, but figured I'd ask you first if you think it's necessary. I don't want to create any unnecessary cleanup, but I also don't want to tag it per WP:G4 unless it's needed. My original suggestion to Jay Odin was for him to resubmit the draft for review via AfC, but maybe that step is not necessary now. Pinging as a courtesy since she is the admin who originally deleted the article at AfD. -- Marchjuly (talk) 21:33, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't understand why the previously deleted content was restored and histmerged. Anyhow, I don't see it as substantially identical for G4. Judge the current article by its merit. If you think notability is questionable, could always nominate it at AFD again. -- KTC (talk) 23:29, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for taking a look . The file has been AfD by another editor; so, its Wikipedia notability or lack thereof will be resolved there. I was a little worried that I gave the creator some bad/un advice at the Teahouse and didn't want him to be penalized because of it. -- Marchjuly (talk) 03:06, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Would it be possible to move José Manuel Mourinho Félix to Félix Mourinho? I can't do it myself, as it has been moved several times in the past.

He is also referred to as Félix in this 2004 Observer article, and following his death in 2017, in various newspapers and media outlets, including The Daily Telegraph, Manchester Evening News, USA Today and Sky Sports.

Here to Learn!
Anthony, I recently discovered you deleted an article I wrote about Jeff Beacher. Of course, I was saddened to see it deleted, but I am here to learn and grow and hopefully become a valued contributor. I'm writing to you in the hopes of getting some mentoring so that I can not only re-work the article to your satisfaction but also get better at this in general - I love doing this kind of research and writing!

During my time writing the article, I worked very hard to find the kind of reliable sources that I'm pretty positive are in good standing with the community. I found coverage of him in sources like The Wall Street Journal, Rolling Stone Magazine, Entrepreneur, Forbes, The LA Times, Variety, etc; and I was careful to avoid including any references from sources that are not respected by wiki. Prior to it being deleted, I was delighted to see many established editors helping to clean up the article, and fix issues; as well as improve the content. Before one of them pointed me to you, I'd been chatting with several of them to try and figure out how to make the article about Jeff Beacher one that would be appreciated by the community. It's been a really great experience for me getting such support for the community!

Anyway, I am here to learn and I would be grateful to have your insight and help in improving what I wrote to enable its re-post/un-deletion. Respectfully DarthBuffet (talk) 19:21, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Triangle Factory
Hello, I saw that you removed the article I wrote about Triangle Factory, I'm quit upset about this since I worked on it with other creators. I got help and advice from other wikipedians to remove certains things, such as peacock words and I did. I'm under te impression the article could not be seen as an advertisement anymore. I admit that in the beginning I used too much peacock words and internal links, but after 2 weeks of cleaning up the article (and having creators tell me it was good now) I am sure that it was a factual article with enough references to establish notability. However, you seemed to think otherwise and just deleted the whole article instead of marking it for improvement. The article told me to to contact you if I wanted to have the contents back for improvements, so I would like to do that. And If it is possible I would like to ask you to give me some feedback on what caused you to just delete the article when it clearly wasn't an advertisement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VindevogelTaho (talk • contribs) 12:14, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

Move of Jin Chinese to Jinyu Chinese
Hi, Anthony. I see you recently made this move, responding to a request at WP:RM/TR. I would like to contest this move, as it is inconsistent with our naming of sister articles. The element yǔ (Chinese for 'speech') is applied to several of these dialect groups when naming them in Chinese, but is less common in English. I believe this should be discussed at an RM before any move. Kanguole 16:53, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

Advice please
Hi! Could I ask your advice on a histmerge I think is needed? Draft:Tom Longboat Award was copy-pasted into mainspace at Tom Longboat Awards, and then deleted. I believe I would know how to merge the history of the original page into the current one if it weren't for the five edits to it on 29 December 2017; I find that I don't know how to deal with those. Is it acceptable to ignore them, for example, and leave them in the limbo where at the moment the whole early history resides? Or should I restore the draft as a redirect and attribute the copying? Thanks, regards, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:00, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
 * ✅ Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:54, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Many thanks – I didn't mean to create extra work for you. But since I have, can I ask you exactly what you did? I would have restored the draft, moved it over the mainspace article and so deleted that, then restored the deleted edits; but I don't see that you've moved either page, so I'm missing a trick. Can you enlighten? Many thanks, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:19, 30 March 2019 (UTC)

EAC
Hi Anthony Appleyard, I wanted to let you know that I reverted your addition to EAC. Since it's a disambiguation page, each entry needs a link to an existing article (which I couldn't find) and external links are not used. Since it's likely that it 'Extend air cartridge' will be added at a later date, I put back a commented-out version of your entry with its reference for future editors.

Punjabi script
Hello, thanks for the history merge to draft as requested. I notice there are a few revisions left unmanaged though, so the mainspace article now appears to begin with a large revert by an editor who didn't create the article. Can that be fixed please?

Move request
I find the RM you started at Template:Infobox television crossover episode a bit strange. Since the original template that was placed in that title was moved without a discussion, that move should be reverted.

Hello Anthony Appleyard, I see you recently recreated this article, overriding the full protection that it should be redirected. Now there are edit requests coming in.

Me! articles
You should probably merge ME! (Taylor Swift song) into Me! (keeping the latter as the page name since it shouldn't be all caps according to naming conventions). Both about the same song and Me! was created before. The disambiguation is also redundant since it is bound to end up the primary topic over the mural. You can clearly see my article about the song was created before the other user created any content about the song.-- N Ø  19:16, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Have seen it. Thanks for that so far, but please merge ME! (Taylor Swift song) and Me!. My revision predates any content MaranoFan created in mainspace at Me! MaranoFan wants her redirect to be first, but that's up to you whether to include as it's not content. Basically asking you to make a judgement call here.  Ss  112   19:22, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * My page: (Started as a redirect on 24 April and expanded on 17:28 on 25th April), the other one [started at 17:34 on the latter day https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ME!_(Taylor_Swift_song)&oldid=894103498]. Anthony, if you were to merge these pages (about the same song), I would come out as the page creator. There's also content that predates either revision at Draft:Me!-- N Ø  19:29, 25 April 2019 (UTC)


 * The pages which are now at ME! (Taylor Swift song) and Me! were being edited in parallel and it would not be truthful to history-merge them. It did not help me that someone else was editing about in these pages while I was editing them. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 19:32, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Then what should be done? I started the content on the Taylor Swift topic first at what is now ME! (mural) and ME! (Taylor Swift song); MaranoFan clearly saw this and did her own thing in the draftspace. Please merge ME! (Taylor Swift song) and Me! as you see fit, but that redirect should not be restored because we can clearly see MaranoFan bases her ego off being the creator of pages on Wikipedia and wants her redirect to stay in place despite its target having nothing to do with the topic. Please help sort this out? We should not have two pages on the same topic existing in tandem. I don't believe MaranoFan's redirect to a disambiguation page should be kept, plain and simple; this is just nonsensical. I have no objections to my edits being merged into the same history as MaranoFan's otherwise.  Ss   112   19:34, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Excuse me? I created the article about the song first. The only reason you would want my redirect removed would be because you want to be the page creator and have ego attachments to it. There is virtually 0 reason you would be gifted the page, when both the redirect and mainspace content I added predate all your revisions at ME! (Taylor Swift song). If you think you're going to misrepresent my character and convince any logical administrator to delete my redirect then that is not gonna happen. You're exposing your obsession with being "credited" as the page creator by making the illogical request to have my redirect deleted.-- N Ø  19:40, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * My obsession? Who complained to an admin first about it? You. I made the topic as a general topic about Taylor Swift, including her song, at what is now ME! (mural). That was started hours before any content you made anywhere. Your redirect should have nothing to do with this because you made it as a redirect to a disambiguation page, not as a page with content about Taylor Swift. We don't "gift" editors edit histories; that you're even using this wording is gross and shows how you view editing pages. Stop using editing Wikipedia as therapy. You don't have a good reputation on Wikipedia, MaranoFan, given your history of blocks and all of what was said about you at ANI by a variety of editors and admins last year. You can't sweep that under the rug. I want an impartial admin to merge the two pages, and honestly, you should just retire like you said you were going to at this point, so this drama doesn't spiral out of control further. It's hard to "misrepresent" your character when it's not in good standing to begin with.  Ss  112   19:48, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

 * ME! (Taylor Swift song) and Me! cannot be "merged" in either sense. They cannot be history-merged because they are WP:Parallel histories. They cannot be text-merged because they contain nearly the same text already. I have redirected Me! to ME! (Taylor Swift song). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:02, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm at a loss with regards to what would be a fair way to address this situation. But redirecting my article; which was created first, expanded first (according to current revision histories of both pages), made at the correct title according to naming conventions + without excess disambiguation, and as you said had almost the same amount of content as the other one; doesn't rub me the right way. It looks like a WP:GAME was played, and won. But I'll thank you for your time anyway.-- N Ø  22:10, 25 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I understand. Anthony, can you please then close the merger I stared at ME! (Taylor Swift song) or make note of this there? Just want to say, despite my words against her, I understand MaranoFan's frustrations. I know she wanted to make the article, and I get that. She did work on a version of it as well. I get just as frustrated as her sometimes (see above).  Ss  112   22:05, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

 * I would have preferred to be replied to by email but thanks. It’s ok then.— N Ø  08:36, 26 April 2019 (UTC)


 * So now it appears that we have three other pages about the same song, one of which has been deleted. Please do the following:
 * 1) Move Draft:Me! to Me! (version 2) without redirect, and then redirect the version 2 page to Me!.
 * 2) Move the deleted edits for Me! and Talk:Me! from 2009 to Me! (created by Brpearson2) and Talk:Me! (created by 79.98.184.19) respectively, and then re-delete the latter two pages.
 * 3) Move the remaining deleted edits for Me! and Talk:Me! to Me! (version 3) and Talk:Me! (version 3) respectively, and then redirect the version 3 page to Me!.
 * 4) Finally, move ME! (song)(version 2) to Me! (version 4) without redirect, and then redirect the version 4 page to Me!.

 * I'm confused what any of this is supposed to achieve. The pages currently found at Me! (version 2) and Me! (version 3) were created before Me!. These names are a misrepresentation and it should have stayed as a draft unless you plan on histmerging them to the main article.—<b style="color:purple">N</b><b style="color:teal">Ø</b> 21:18, 28 April 2019 (UTC)


 * It has been chosen which of the Me!... pages is the best and most suitable to be the accepted version. The others have been given version numbers. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:27, 28 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Would it be fine if I moved them into my userspace? They really serve no purpose in the space of main articles since no one is gonna search for other "versions" of an article.—<b style="color:purple">N</b><b style="color:teal">Ø</b> 22:30, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Caitlin Dulany
Just a heads up that I restored and draftified this. I don't disagree with your deletion, but I think she's notable enough to pass A7 and will see if I can source it. If not, I'll re-delete.

Mary White (Green Party politician
Not sure if you saw my comment at WP:SPLICE, so just querying your deletion of this page. If a history merge was not possible (though it looked feasible to me), does the page not need to be retained for attribution purposes? The content of that page was cut & pasted into Mary White (Green Party politician) so that effectively makes it a page merge. PC78 (talk) 15:21, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Mary White (Green Party politician contains 2 text edits which are WP:Parallel histories with Mary White (Green Party politician), and then 4 redirect edits. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:45, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Not sure that answers my question. As I recall, text first posted at Mary White (Green Party politician was subsequently cut & paste into the other article, hence my request for a history merge and comment about attribution. I mean it doesn't really bother me that much to be honest, I was just curious since the deletion was unexpected. PC78 (talk) 21:54, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Someone had been calling for history merges in a campaign against old stub pages with unmatched round brackets in their names. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 21:56, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

Administrator account security (Correction to Arbcom 2019 special circular)
ArbCom would like to apologise and correct our previous mass message in light of the response from the community.

Since November 2018, six administrator accounts have been compromised and temporarily desysopped. In an effort to help improve account security, our intention was to remind administrators of existing policies on account security — that they are required to "have strong passwords and follow appropriate personal security practices." We have updated our procedures to ensure that we enforce these policies more strictly in the future. The policies themselves have not changed. In particular, two-factor authentication remains an optional means of adding extra security to your account. The choice not to enable 2FA will not be considered when deciding to restore sysop privileges to administrator accounts that were compromised.

We are sorry for the wording of our previous message, which did not accurately convey this, and deeply regret the tone in which it was delivered.

For the Arbitration Committee, -Cameron11598 21:03, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

Guidance
Hi Anthony. Could you provide some guidance for a relatively new user, MacCready? They recently made an ill-advised, if well-intentioned, move of Unbreakable (film series) that went against the consensus on the talkpage. After I reverted the move, they opened up an incorrect move request on the talkpage, to which you responded, with bemusement, that the move had already been made (but not by you). They then improperly edited the previous, malformed move request (which I have since reverted) instead of placing a new one, so that the bot put the notice on the article but the talkpage still showed a "completed" notice.

The editor seems to make a lot of moves for a new user, which is fine (albeit a really odd editing pattern one doesn't usually see in someone with so few edits), but they don't ever seem to engage in any other interaction on talkpages; it looks like (from an admittedly quick skim of their contributions) that they may have had other move issues in the past (see the edit history for Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure). They're also marking almost every single edit they make as "minor", no matter what it is. I think this user is trying to contribute effectively, but they really need to hear from a friendly admin who is very familiar about moves about slowing down, maybe learning more about moving before getting so heavily involved in it, and understanding what the "minor" checkbox is for. Thanks. Grandpallama (talk) 11:52, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

Advice re best way to deal with a so-called uncontroversial move
Recently you implemented an uncontrovesial move request. However, the user involved first rewrote a number of articles to remove distinctions that existed between a small number of articles and then renamed the articles, including requesting this "uncontroversial" move. There was no prior proposal to undertake this redefinition and renaming and I have explained now on Talk:Squatting in Australia why I don't agree. I do not know if the editor involved is familiar with Australia and squatting in Australia (a historical term with a quite particular meaning) so it may have been done in good faith, but certainly no time was allowed to establish if it was controversial. What is the appropriate way to unwind this and have a more open process where people get to have input on this. Thanks Kerry (talk) 12:36, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * hiya probably the best place to discuss this is where the discussion has already begun at Talk:Squatting in Australia. however i would like to respond that it's not the case at all that I "first rewrote a number of articles to remove distinctions that existed between a small number of articles and then renamed the articles." Please check my contributions and you'll see that afterwards i was busy changing links from squatting (pastoral) to squattocracy. Further, I first suggested a name change in 2008 so i'm surprised by the accusations of overhasty activity. Anyway, i hope we can reach a solution that satisfies everyone. Cheers! Mujinga (talk) 14:30, 15 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Could you please undo the rogue "uncontroversial technical request" you acted on that's been opposed by every single person who replied, and which, looking at the talk page, was made by a user not actually familiar with the subject of the article? These kinds of random administrative roadblocks on a whim leading to absurd conclusions (no consensus to do the absurd thing in the first place, consensus needed to fix it) are one of the most disheartening things about contributing to Wikipedia. The Drover&#39;s Wife (talk) 23:00, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

I'm not sure why you've ignored my comment, and your response was neither here nor there: we know how the article wound up at squattocracy, we're asking you to undo a contested technical request that has been opposed by every single person who replied and for which the request was made by somebody with no understanding of the topic. Why are you fighting us on this? This is Wikipedia at its worst: someone does an ill-informed thing which is meant to be able to be easily fixed by normal processes, and normal editors trying to fix it are just randomly stymied for no apparent reason.

History merge request (Akira)
Could you merge the edit history of Draft:Akira (2021 film) into Akira (2021 film)? Thank you. Rusted AutoParts 21:32, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
 * This draft article had been worked for for a period of time prior to the mainspace introduction and at no point was the info taken from the mainspace article. It’s actually the opposite. I really don’t believe the drafts content and history should be lost because another user jumped the gun (filming on it has yet to begin). Would you please reconsider restoring the history merge? I have read the parallel histories page and it says that copy and paste moves are highly undesired. A vast majority of my draft work was copy and pasted by the mainspace articles editor. So it stands in my opinion that the origin of this info that was copy and pasted should get preserved via a history merge. Rusted AutoParts  22:46, 24 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Akira (2021 film) did not originate as a complete cut-and-paste from Draft:Akira (2021 film), but apparently as partial cut-and-pastes from sources including Akira (manga) at 17:54, 24 May 2019‎ by User:Masem. As Draft:Akira (2021 film) and Akira (2021 film) are partly WP:Parallel histories, I would have to cut one history to rejoin another history. Disputes about priority between two people who independently start articles about the same subject, happen sometimes; such disputes should be decided by the quality of the articles as they stand at their latest edits. With partial cut-and-pastes, attribution would have to be stated in a history section inserted at the start of the talk pages of the affected articles. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:51, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Intellectual dark web


A tag has been placed on Intellectual dark web requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. w umbolo  ^^^  09:33, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Also, I'm confused. I think you just started two new RMs running concurrently with the other two. 142.160.89.97 (talk) 05:38, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I started one; someone else started the other. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 08:51, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Susan Polgar
Why did you move Susan Polgar? This was not a technical move request and it should have been discussed at Talk:Susan Polgar. FYI, her official website, http://www.susanpolgar.com/, uses the orthography "Susan Polgar". Since her birth name was "Polgár Zsuzsanna" I have to say this is the kind of undiscussed move that annoys me. Quale (talk) 23:18, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
 * That move was 155 days ago, at about 09:02, 27 December 2018, from name Susan Polgar, asked for by User:AuroraButterfly. At 09:02, 10 May 2019‎ User:1997kB renamed User:AuroraButterfly as User:Aranya. Do you want me to move page Susan Polgár back, or to start a move discussion? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:14, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I did not notice that it was so long ago. I think I should start a move discussion.  I'm surprised to see an admin make a technical move under these circumstances, since I do not see that it is obviously correct to make that move without discussion.  Her given name was Polgár Zsuzsanna, but in English this would normally be Zsuzsanna Polgár or Zsuzsanna Polgar and old sources in English use those names.  She's lived about half her life so far in the US, and every year that percentage goes up and the percentage of her life spent in Hungary goes down.  In the US she has gone by Susan Polgar with no diacritic.  I think Susan Polgár is an odd choice since that is not her Hungarian name nor is it the name she uses now, but although it is a strange hybrid an argument can be made for it.  "An argument can be made for it" does not meet the requirements for a technical move, in my opinion, since that should be reserved for moves where no discussion is necessary and the correct name (by Wikipedia standards) is clear.  Since there are at least four plausible titles for the article (Zsuzsanna Polgár, Zsuzsanna Polgar, Susan Polgar and Susan Polgár) and it is certainly not apparent to me that the one you chose is obviously correct, I would rather that move not have been made without discussion.

Amit Agarwal
Thanks for handling my request at RM/TR; I made the request because I wasn't sure what to do with the deleted history at that page. Did you mean to undelete all of it, even though it's not relevant to the current subject? (I've since revdel'd the very first deleted version, which was a blatant copyvio.) Wikiacc (¶) 20:50, 14 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks for handling this. I've gone ahead and deleted Amit Agarwal (blogger) and Amit Agarwal (film producer) under G4. Wikiacc (¶) 18:01, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

Establishing a Page for Chicago TARDIS
When I went to create a page for "Chicago TARDIS" (the 2nd oldest "Doctor Who" convention in the US) I found a warning that you had deleted a page ten years ago. It advised that I should contact you before creating such a page to ensure that I'm not repeating prior issues (I have not seen the old page... and I cannot see it per Wikipedia permissions). I did not know there had been a page ten years ago until I tried to create one today.

I have my sandbox version https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:ParallelWolverine/Chicago_TARDIS that I propose copying to Wikipedia.

I am asking for your feedback - hoping that this article is worthy.

Do you agree, or have any feedback/advice?

Thank you.

Requested move apparently not done?
Hello. I posted a move request the other day that you said you addressed—the 2009 Iraqi governorate elections article—but it doesn't appear that the change went through. Could you take another swing at it? Thanks. --<b style="color: #be0032;">Jprg1966</b> <sup style="color: #003366;">(talk) 23:45, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
