Please do not revert my contribution!!!
Sir! As I have noticed, you keep deleting all my stuff contributed to the Wikipedia. How dare you! Do you think, that I am sending rubbish? No! All my posts are well-prepared not only with text, but also with relevant references! All the matter regarding total solar eclipse is a product of my pioneer observations, which I believe should be implemented to the scientific world. Therefore i am kindly asking you to stop deleting my hard work. I know, that I can't block/report you as you have a better profile with more contributed stuff than mine, but I can keep creating new profiles and keep posting this stuff until the decent result.

Hello, I noticed you blanked this article and converted it to a redirect. Except in narrow circumstances, articles in the mainspace should not be blanked. See WP:Page blanking. If you believe an article does not meet notability guidelines, you should propose it for deletion.  Ergo Sum  14:14, 6 November 2022 (UTC)


 * WP:BLANKANDREDIRECT states that Removing all content in a problematic article and replacing it with a redirect is common practice, known as blank-and-redirect. If other editors disagree with this blanking, its contents can be recovered from page history, as the article has not been deleted. That seems to contradict WP:PAGEBLANKING, at least for this circumstance. See past discussion at, , , , and so on, which establishes that blank-and-redirect is commonly accepted, even if some editors have issue with it.
 * It's rare for a university's police, security, or safety department to be notable enough for its own article, and there are many past AfDs for such departments that all end in either merger or deletion: one example with good rationale is Articles for deletion/University of Oregon Police Department. As the creator and primary editor of Georgetown University Police Department, and someone who appears to have a personal connection to Georgetown, I'd encourage you to add independent sources to it and shore up its notability under WP:GNG and WP:ORG. Right now every single cited source has a direct connection to the topic. I'll refrain from AfDing it for now, since you seem to be actively working on the article.
