Deletion review of Valeri Lilov
Hi an editor has bought this article to deletion review, since it's part based on you having responded to a request for feedback and saying it was ready for mainspace, you might have some useful input. The article has been deleted via CSD:G4 as substantially the same as an article deleted through AFD. --82.7.40.7 (talk) 17:48, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The article was a November 30, 2010, G4 speedy delete of Valeri "Tiger" Lilov. While I reviewed a draft in September, I don't recall ever seeing this particular article and have no record as a contributor. An appropriate action would be for the author to contact the editor that deleted the article according to the G4 criteria. DRV is premature. That said, I have commented at the DRV. Thanks for contacting me. Cindamuse (talk) 01:51, 4 December 2010 (UTC)

Cindamuse:

I don't mean obscure at all. Just many regional newspapers do not have online archives and there are many books that are not online. Just because some piece of proof doesn't have a URL doesn't mean it's not a valid source.;-)

Something's not right?
Target Zero was previously deleted as the work of a banned user. Do you think it is a genuine attempt at an article from a new user, or does it bear more scrutiny? --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 02:45, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, that's confirmation. I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out the sock behind this account. Every article that this editor has created has been deliberately introducing false information to the point of vandalism. Definitely more scrutiny. Who is the banned user? Cindamuse (talk) 02:50, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I think the only way to know for sure is being able to view the deleted articles; not being an admin I can't see the deleted histories. The deleting admin appears to be pretty active, perhaps they can help? This is most certainly not Tommy's first kick at the Wiki can. --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 02:59, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree, Tommy seems all too familiar. Go ahead and contact AP. Let's see what we can find out. Broke my thumb, so I'm not online as much as usual, but I'll keep an eye out. Cindamuse (talk) 04:32, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry to hear about the broken thumb; if nothing else you have an excuse for not wrapping holiday gifts this year :). I have left a note with the deleting admin here and pointed them to this thread. --Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 17:52, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for asking me, I've blocked them as a sockpuppet of User:Jake Picasso and will delete their contributions now. Anemone  Projectors  17:55, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, yes. Picasso. I recognize him from my art history classes. Crossed paths with him a few times. Thanks for helping out AP. Mucho gracias. Cindamuse (talk) 01:53, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Duplicate AfD
I just nominated your AfD for deletion because I nominated the page at the same time. Feel free to comment on my nomination. &mdash; Timneu22 · &#32; talk 13:18, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Katherine Mangu-Ward
I saw your CSD at Katherine Mangu-Ward. I agree it was a problem at the time you tagged it, but the editor has rewritten, and IMO, it looks fine now, so I removed the speedy. If you disagree, let's talk. -- SPhilbrick  T  20:22, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

RE: GHK Copper page authentication by an expert
Hi,

I came across the GHK copper page and saw it needs authentication by an expert. While I don't normally call myself that, my research background is in biochemistry, specifically collagen and elastin. I can vouch that the GHK page is scientifically accurate; I studied it in previous work on fibroblast growth. Please let me know if you need something else. I don't have time to add to the article right now but what is there is straightforward. Domini010 (talk) 05:21, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * I came across the article while patrolling new pages. I have zero knowledge and/or background in science, so I flag those for review by editors with that specific area of expertise. If you can vouch for the authenticity, please feel free to remove the flag requesting assistance. Thanks for contacting me. Best regards,  Cind. amuse  07:51, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of colored pencils list

Speedy deletion converted to PROD: Celeterra
Hello Cindamuse. I am just letting you know that I have converted the speedy deletion tag that you placed on Celeterra to a proposed deletion tag, because I do not believe CSD applies to the page in question - it's factual rather than overtly promotional. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 12:25, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Dang. I should have caught that as a book. As a self-published book, I doubt that it crosses the threshold. That said, thanks for following through and contacting me. Hope you're having a great evening/morning. Happy editing! Regards,  Cind. amuse  12:31, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Ultras White Knights
Hi. I've changed this CSD to 'receation from  XfD' I  distictly  remembered it  and it's in  the logs (twice). Let's hope it's similar enough to  what  was deleted - I'm  only  guessing :) --Kudpung (talk) 13:14, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the followup and contacting me. I don't think it ever crossed my path before. Either way, I think the article is probably a gonner. Hope all is well. Happy editing! Regards,  Cind. amuse  13:16, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion Foodpairing (website)
Hello there, could you please read the discussion attached to the wiki. I know that the notability is not sufficient as for now, but I am working on it. Please also note that I discussed it before you nominated the page. Which steps should I undertake to get it right? Drobbere (talk) 11:53, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for contacting me. There always seems to be some confusion for new editors. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, rather than a webhost or promotional tool. Subjects must be notable prior to submission to Wikipedia, rather than the other way around. And articles must be supported with significant, reliable, and independent sources. It would be in your best interest to move the article to a subpage of your userspace and create it there. Then, when the subject is supported with significant coverage by reliable sources that are independent of the subject, you may consider transferring the article to the mainspace. Many new editors make the mistake of creating their article directly and using the main article space as their workspace. This basically sets the article up for quick deletion. Currently the only reference that is considered reliable or independent of the subject is the one for starchefs.com. This does not equate to significant and therefore, the article may be quickly deleted. Again, your best course of action is to save your work and move it to a subpage. Best regards,  Cind. amuse  12:17, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, that sounds reasonable. It is quite dificult for me (as an unexperienced user) to determine whether a source is good enough for the mentioned purpose. Can I send you somehow other references to check whether they are valid? Drobbere (talk) 13:00, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Did some nosing around on the net. The website is mentioned in an indepently written book "Cooking for geeks"link. On the otherhand, there are numerous articles about the website in important Dutch and Belgian magazines. The problem is that they are written in dutch. An article like this would certainly be enough to remove the fast deletion, yet the google translation is a bit crappy. If the website was not notable, it would not have been presented on three major gastronomic congresses (Lo major de la gastronomia, Star chefs, The flemish primitives). This is really a remarkable feat, and is considered very notable in the gastronomic world, sadly that is not good enough for wiki. But I think I will get there eventually. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drobbere (talk • contribs) 14:08, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Malcolm Warner
I deleted the speedy tag on Malcolm Warner. He is absolutely not a speedy delete candidate. I have no idea why you would think there is no credible claim of notability. There is plenty of claim here. Enough that I AfD'd it instead of PRODing. Please review the A7 speedy delete standards and don't nominate articles like this. D O N D E groovily  Talk to me  06:02, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * You may want to read, review, and come to an understanding of the Wikipedia deletion policy. A claim of an impressive resume is not applicable to the deletion process. There is nothing in the article to indicate importance or significance. And the two sources presented for this article are not significant. While you're reviewing policy, please consider the one on personal attacks and apply it to your editing practices. Thank you.  Cind. amuse  06:58, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
