Bland Operatic School PA (centralized educational sound system)
You had put in a recommendation for deletion of this article. I now already heavily triage any effort I put into wikipedia after the deletion of the Rola Loudspeaker co article some years ago. Now this was seen as a totally obscure, un-notable brand of loudspeaker, by those proposing it's deletion. However infact Rola was the greatest manufacturer of loudspeakers in Australia for many decades. And it would be easy to say that Rola is still Australia's most notable loudspeaker. They made the loose speaker drivers and the purchaser would put them into the equipment they were making. I think most radios, TVs, stereos, radiograms ect made from 1945 to 1975 had Rola speakers inside.

The wiki code from Rola Speaker co I had not saved but it may still be in Wikipedia's archive. It didn't turn up in Deletionpedia and I think it predated their time window. Actually Rola still is quite a hole in Wikipedia coverage that still hasn't been filled. It is something that goes through your mind "should I write this article or add this contribution". I now would only redo Rola with the old code available. The problem of lack of the original archive (through various hard drive failures) exists in some of my other projects - and does impact one's ability to renew such projects.

I am now reviewing my work with Wikipedia and other projects, to evaluate where I should really spend my effort. Photo upload from my own archive to wikimedia commons is another activity I am pursuing cautiously. All the best. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teknikingman (talk • contribs) 09:42, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi there. Two things. First, you forgot to sign your keep vote, and second, could you provide urls and a brief summary of good sources you found in Farsi. Thanks.4meter4 (talk) 02:09, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

Hi, please note that a prod cannot be replaced as per WP:PROD. Also the band clearly pass WP:GNG with the reviews in the review section, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 16:51, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I’m sorry, my mistake. I didn’t realise I’d prodded the same article twice. Thanks for pointing it out. Mccapra (talk) 21:43, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Moobol. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. It is nothing less than plain disruptive to go around WP:PRODing an article that has a reference section and claiming it is unsourced withotu reason. There are various tags, such as requiring inline citations that may be appropriate but I am very concerned either WP:PRODNOM was not followed like claimed or the article not examined closely. Thankyou Djm-leighpark (talk) 11:36, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
 * Thanks for your message. I've removed the PROD tag because as you rightly say there is no basis for it since the article clearly has sources.  I don't know what I thought I was doing but evidently working too late in the evening or just not paying enough attention. Thanks for pointing it out. Mccapra (talk) 11:57, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
 * You think you make mistakes ... just follow me! ... I make some absolute whoppers. But the admission of the mistake and the removal of the PROD does you honour, and I confess I too missed that Reference section on first glance was was wandering into pages of various Chinese writings hoping google translate would be my friend.  Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 12:06, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
 * I look at that edit and just wonder how on earth I managed to miss an entire ref section. Quite scary really. Mccapra (talk) 12:37, 8 November 2019 (UTC)
