Franco Iacomella article
Hi, thanks for your message. Im new in Wikipedia. I added that article because its about an important free software referent and GNU hacker of latin america and because other important figures of the free software foundation as Fernanda G. Weiden, Federico Heinz or Christiano Anderson have acepted articles. Why this case is different? Thanks for your help.

Bit confused about what I can post
I have just tried to post a page on Pen Heaven which is a great company I have bought from in the past and not found on Wiki. I thought it would be a great way of my adding to Wiki. I found Parker and Lamy so thought it was fine to create a page on a company. It has been speedily deleted but I can't understand why Parker can stay but Pen Heaven can't? Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by EmmaPJs (talk • contribs) 11:36, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

User talk:Ƿynnþorneð is salted???
User:Ƿynnþorneð made an edit to Verner's Law today and I would like to talk to him about it. Imagine my surprise when I found that his talk page was protected. Oddly enough his user page isn't. This looks like such an un-random salting that I figured I'd come to you and ask what's up rather than do something abnormal like post on his user page instead. Is there a reason why this person's talk page has been protected against creation? By the way his username is "wynn thorn eth" in Old English, which are three letters of the alphabet. It actually curiously resembles "wtf" but I am assuming that is a coincidence. Soap Talk/Contributions 22:58, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Evansville Lincoln High School Article Deleted
I looked up this high school. It says the article was deleted because "This was a high school that consolidated into another high school". Are you kidding? First of all, so what? It's still worthwhile knowing about high schools that consolidated. More significantly, in this case, Lincoln was not "consolidated". It was an all-black K-12 school established in order to keep black students out of schools in Southwestern Indiana. Other counties bussed their black students in. The schol became an elementary school in the '60's due to the Supreme Court mandate. These things are worth noting. It wasn't just a school that was around for a while before closing due to enrollment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.68.176.153 (talk) 22:59, 1 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Not quite. The article was deleted for being too short, because its entire content was one sentence: "Evansville Lincoln was a high school that ended up being consolidated into another high school.'"  This does not prevent anyone from recreating the article with information such as you've provided above, as long as it's backed by reliable independent sources.

 * You're going to need to find reliable independent sources which show that this company meets the notability standards of WP:CORP. NawlinWiki (talk) 03:05, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

We are listed as the vendor of visa and master, ie. http://www.visa-asia.com/ap/hk/en_US/cardholders/offers/vbv_index.shtml, http://www.mastercard.com/us/merchant/solutions/securecode_vendor_list.html We are shown in some news, i.e. TDC: http://ict.hktdc.com/suc-e263.htm Are those sources good enough? Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bowielkk (talk • contribs) 04:58, 2 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Nope. A lot of nonnotable companies have big corporations as clients, and the last source you listed is a PR press release.  Please read WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 05:12, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Visa and master is not AsiaPay's client, while AsiaPay is the authorized vendor of 3D-secure in industry. Besides, AsiaPay is in the Registry PCI DSS Service Provider list (http://www.visa-asia.com/ap/sea/merchants/riskmgmt/vrsp_list.html). That's what I write in the article, isn't it?

Thanks
Thanks for unprotecting your talk page and giving us anonoymous and new users a chance to get in touch with one of the most active admins on any wiki project there is. By protecting you were only punishing us innocent users and doing such a thing only serves to make the sheep laugh harder and longer. I thank you for the work you have done in combating the vandalism on the wiki and hope that you will not take such a stance in regard to your page again. There are a number of things you can do apart from doing the easy thing and pressing that protect tab which serves no purpose. You could ask East718 and his bot to look after your page, you could create a subpage like so many users have done or you could also just get over the rubbish and improve the encyclopedia. Is that not what we're all here for? I hope you take the above comments in mind. It is in your hands. You still have my respect. Cheers 211.30.110.181 (talk) 12:15, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

P.O.O.P.
Gee, I hope I get past RC patrol with that section header. :) I was just about to decline the G1 tag on the P.O.O.P article, for two reasons: It wasn't "patent nonsense" per the definition, and it wasn't vandalism either per google (See this search, seems to be a well known concept from the show). From what I can see, the author created this in good fait. Although it is clearly not something we want to keep as an article it's not covered by any of the SD criteria. -- Amalthea 22:49, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Writing a wiki
Hello. I noticed that you deleted Writing a wiki, which I had proposed for deletion, under WP:CSD A3. At the time that I PRODed it, it had quite a bit of content, and was a recognizable guide to electronic storage methods. Was it blanked in the time between the PROD and the Deletion?--Unscented (talk) 12:24, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
 * No, but it just wasn't very useful -- it had short descriptions of smart cards, flash drives, and compact discs, all of which have their own articles, as does the general topic Data storage device. And Writing a wiki isn't a good redirect to Data storage device.  So maybe A3 wasn't right, but I don't see any reason to restore this.  NawlinWiki (talk) 15:17, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Taylor Perkinson
The article I wrote about Taylor Perkinson was not an attack page. All I said is that he was a same-sex activist and a autism activist. You are being prejudice and assume that he is not actually gay, or that he supports gays and autistic societies. I feel like the page was wrongly deleted and should be put back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jcannon98188 (talk • contribs) 16:42, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

No he really is a stinking gay rights activist. Your are such a retard. You just assume that I am being a jerk to him because I am making a wiki that says he is a gay activist. HE IS A GAY ACTIVIST. You sir are being prejudice and need to stop. People can legitimately support gay rights retard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jcannon98188 (talk • contribs) 17:48, 3 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually, the article was deleted as an attack page because it contained negative, unsourced statements about its subject. In this case, while you may believe that being gay or autistic is an insult, in point of fact there were other claims in the article that were unsubstantiated and really were negative, unsourced content. Please see WP:BLP, and while you're at it, it may help to read this overview of what can happen to editors who continue to disrupt the project. Frank  |  talk  21:10, 3 March 2009 (UTC)

Taj semi-protection
As a major editor to Taj Mahal, I'm very grateful for this article's semi-protection. Before semi-protection, it was practically a full-time job cleaning up the mess left by vandalism and tests from anonymous IPs.

Removal of Pillow Talks
I'm very confused as to why you deleted the page about Pillow Talks. It's a legitimate web series, the article cited references from multiple legitimate news sources, such as tubefilter.tv and reelchicago.com, and I can point at several articles about similar content(web series) that display a similar level of information and references (or less), are in no way more significant, and have not been deleted. For example, The Suburbs (web series), Spy Grid, Cockpit (web series), to name a few. Not trying to point fingers, but I do feel all content should be treated equally. Please advise. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phoenix200fr (talk • contribs) 06:35, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

User:Hamish Ross sockpuppets
I've looked at the user creation logs from 28-30 November 2007 and found a few accounts that either look like sockpuppets of User:Hamish Ross, or are in groups of accounts with similar names, or are inappropriate names (although there are probably more that are not as obvious). I've made a list in my sandbox at (there is also a new account that appears to be a meatpuppet or sockpuppet). — Snigbrook 13:48, 4 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Nice work! Blocked all but the first one (not sure about that name, but the rest definitely fit).  Thanks!! NawlinWiki (talk) 13:57, 4 March 2009 (UTC)


 * The first one is a reference to the Sudanese teddy bear blasphemy case, there is already a sockpuppet with a name referring to it . I'm not sure if  is a sockpuppet, but there should probably be a username block for possible impersonation, as it refers to a person in the news at the time and is unlikely to be that person.  The IP probably doesn't need a long block (if any block) as it is dynamic and the user has changed IPs since (the most recent in that range is  which has been blocked), I only added it for comparison with the new account, i.e. the username and user page were references to that vandalism. — Snigbrook  14:20, 4 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I get it - Gillian now blocked. Thanks again!  NawlinWiki (talk) 14:22, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Robert Godwin
Hi!

I responded to a post on the help desk which requested that the lede be expanded. I duly did that and considered the matter closed. However, I glanced back over the history today and spotted your protection - and the edits that preceded it. That set alarm bells ringing, and I thought I should run my changes by you.

So... have I been trolled?! In my defense I didn't blindly accept the help desk poster's wording - I read the article and edited the lede to reflect the subject's full career.

Please feel free to revert my recent changes if you deem it necessary. Out of curiosity I'd appreciate any background to this issue that you'd be prepared to provide - though I'll understand if that isn't possible.

Cheers, This flag once was redpropagandadeeds 14:25, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * The edits I reverted were made by a Jarlaxle Artemis/Grawp sock, just to get to 10 edits so that he could move pages. I have no problem with you making the changes.  It's interesting that for someone who hates Wikipedia so much, he cares enough to use an IP account to ask for a legitimate change.  If he'd just stop moving pages, he could make all the legitimate changes he wanted to (and could maybe even get some of his beloved Dungeons & Dragons articles back).  NawlinWiki (talk) 14:29, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah, understood. I suppose it's possible that the posting on WP:Help desk was purely coincidental. Sadly I suspect it's more likely that the little giant really is that obsessive.  Thanks for the explanation, This flag once was redpropagandadeeds 14:33, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Removal of Pillow Talks
Hi. You didn't respond to my previous post about the deletion of the page for Pillow Talks (web series). Could you please shed some light? I double checked these examples i gave you, and Pillow Talks was no less relevent, referenced or notable than any of these. Thanks

I'm very confused as to why you deleted the page about Pillow Talks. It's a legitimate web series, the article cited references from multiple legitimate news sources, such as tubefilter.tv and reelchicago.com, and I can point at several articles about similar content(web series) that display a similar level of information and references (or less), are in no way more significant, and have not been deleted. For example, The Suburbs (web series), Spy Grid, Cockpit (web series), to name a few. Not trying to point fingers, but I do feel all content should be treated equally. Please advise. Thank you. Phoenix200fr (talk) 21:29, 4 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Can you show that tubefilter.tv and reelchicago.com are reliable sources (see WP:V) and not just blogs/PR outlets? As for the other articles, see generally WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS -- but The Suburbs has a regular newspaper article and Cockpit has a CNET article.  I've deleted Spy Grid for lacking any sources, and not even being in production yet.  NawlinWiki (talk) 21:44, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

In addition, Pillow Talks was also reviewed on (tilzy.tv, which I hadn't included as a reference as I thought tubefilter and reelchicago would suffice, but can be added as a reference. Let me know if that is enough. Thanks.Phoenix200fr (talk) 07:27, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
 * What do I need to do to show that tubefilter.tv and reelchicago are real? tubefilter.tv and tilzy.tv are two out 3 or 4 websites that independently review internet video content exclusively. They cohost the Streamy awards. And reelchicago is a local Chicago film dedicated newsletter that has existed for as long as I can remember, and is accepted as reference in other wikipedia articles (Flashpoint The Academy of Media Arts and Sciences).


 * Fair enough -- I've restored the article. Please add the third source.  Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 15:03, 5 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Done. Thank you. Phoenix200fr (talk) 22:54, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

speedy deletion of Shannon Braithwaite
I don't understand why my page was deleted. It was on a real event and I had outside reliable sources to prove that. I don't agree that a young girl that was murdered by another teen relative is not notable. Can you please tell me what I can add to my page to make it meet the wikipedia criteria? I did a good search on the Murdered American Children page and I found a couple of pages that seem to be less notable than my page on Shannon: Kayla Rowland, Ronnie Paris, Dalia Harir, and Joseph Wallace. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Qualynda (talk • contribs) 15:51, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, there are thousands of murders every year. Most of them draw at least one local news article, which is what you have.  But that doesn't mean that they are all notable per our guidelines at WP:BIO.   The deaths of Kayla Rowland, Ronnie Paris, and Joseph Wallace received substantial news coverage from multiple sources.  Dalia Harir's is more comparable, and I have listed that one for deletion as well.  NawlinWiki (talk) 16:55, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 * My name is Alex Jones, and I'm a high school teacher in Brooklyn. Qualynda (whose account I am writing under) is a student in my technology class, and her assignment was to create a Wikipedia page.

When I read the WP:BIO page what I saw was the Basic Criteria: "A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject."

* If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be needed to prove notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources may not be sufficient to establish notability.[6] * Primary sources may be used to support content in an article, but they do not contribute toward proving the notability of a subject.

There are multiple news sources that Qualynda didn't cite but would be happy to if it would mean that the page could be re-established. Shannon's death was certainly big news in our community in New York City (not just limited to Brooklyn), and your message seems to imply that if Shannon's page has "substantial news coverage from multiple sources" then it can be re-established.

Hi, NawlinWiki. Can you remove Ministry for State Security (East Germany) to Stasi back? Stasi was removed by Gryffindor  in January 2009.

GFDL violation in creation of Madoff Investment Scandal
You did a speedy keep on Madoff Investment Scandal before I could comment at the AfD for it. I believe it was a GFDL violation exactly as stated by the user who nominated it for deletion. Newguy34 split the article Bernard Madoff as explained on the talk page for that article. When he created the new article Madoff Investment Scandal, he didn't put that it was a split from another article in the edit summary as he was supposed to based on Splitting. This means the history of who wrote the text isn't kept at Madoff Investment Scandal, which is a violation of part 4 of the GFDL exactly as Nondk said. I'm not sure what the proper way to fix that is (I don't think deletion is correct), but it does need to be fixed somehow. Calathan (talk) 19:19, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Oops, good grief, user Calathan is right. My oversight.  How can we fix? Newguy34 (talk) 19:39, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I just looked up how to go about fixing this. Apparently there is a special speedy delete tag for this, and then an admin needs to temorarily delete it and recreate it with the history added in.  I have tagged the article with what I think is the correct tag.  I'm not 100% sure I got the right tag since this is a split and not a move, so if anyone knows another tag that should have been used, please replace the tag I used. Calathan (talk) 19:55, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
 * You all are right about the GFDL history issue, but this is going to require more than a quick fix and I'm not going to do anything until I figure out how to do it (or, better, if someone who's familiar with this does it first). NawlinWiki (talk) 20:00, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
 * A quick fix suffices, I think; one need only to make a null edit with an edit summary to the effect that the article incorporates content from Bernard Madoff, which edit need not precede the first (in essence, the procedure we follow whenever we split an article; that the entry is anachronistic is not a GFDL problem). Joe 23:32, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
 * And, having read the discussion at Talk:Madoff investment scandal, I made the establishing edit; we need, it is my sense, go no further. Joe 23:38, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Tenrox Inc.
Hello NW. Would you be able to expand on your decision to remove the article on Tenrox? I have referred to the general notability guidelines as well as those for a business and am mystified that you feel Tenrox fails to meet them. In business for 13 years. Dozens of awards from prestigious sources such as the Canadian federal gov't, Quebec provincial gov't, Microsoft, and SIIA. Over 800 notable clients including the Pentagon, U.S. Army, State of Wyoming, IBM, three Canadian federal ministries and four American universities. Multi-million per year earnings. And on.

Did my article fail to highlight these notable points sufficiently? If so, it was because I did not want the resource to read like an advertisement. Thanks for your time in clarifying all this for me. Saighe (talk) 14:23, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Sorry - I just noticed your message regarding notable clients not equaling notability (though I don't know if you posted before or after my query). If my article included the information found on http://www.tenrox.com/en/newsevents/awards.htm, would that be sufficiently notable? Those are all external sources and examples of others recognizing the company as notable. Saighe (talk) 14:43, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

I would be able to cite and provide links to 3rd party sources for such things as awards and news/magazine articles. As I mentioned before, I was simply concerned that the article come across too much as sales/promotion copy. Is it possible to have the article re-instated with a warning fflag so that I can rework it? Saighe (talk) 14:49, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Very much appreciated, thank you. Should I contact you to approve the article when it has been re-worked, or should I just publish it again and let it go through natural vetting?Saighe (talk) 14:54, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

help
Hi there I need and admins help on this being that you are from the N.O you are perfect this is about the article rice and beans i have already gotten into a an editing war with an editor called Boston. he keeps on reverting the article back and filling it with his opinions other than facts. When another editor got in the mix to add the proper facts to if. Boston got another editor by the name of jhieves to revert edits for him. Jhieves realized that Boston was using him stopped and admitted that he knows nothing about the subject. The part where the vandalism is talking place is the history. it is a well know fact that the african slaves inroduced certain foods, like jumbo, rice and beans, okra, yams etc to the south, carribean and latin america. This editor name boston keeps on editing the history of the page to his own personal opinions and something he calls the “introduction of asian rice by the Portuguese empire to the Americas” he has no refs and citations to back this claim up. The problem with this 1# this article is about a dish not the so called "introduction of rice". 2# there is no historic record of what he is claiming if you look at the history cultivation of rice rice it didn't originate in asia, it is a native african grain. also the Africans had been cultivating rice for over 3500 years and eating rice and beans before being brought to the Americas #4 The Portuguese did not introduce rice or “Asian” rice to the Americans .and the article is not about the history of rice in America to begin with. it is about the meal rice and beans.

Hi, Nawlin. The situation at Wyandotte, Michigan is just absurd. I've requested that the page be semi-protected, but it was denied. They just said to discuss it, but that clearly has no effect.

As an 'established' (Need a refrence :-)) member of the wiki community I know you have a lot of running round deleting articles but would it be possible (for newer members such as myself) to expand and help with the development of an article someone has made rather than just deleating, I don't mean putting in hours of effot to make it viable but rather just a message on the talk page saying why you felt it needed to be deleated and saying how it could be improved. Obvioulsy this would not be applicable to all scenarios but as the person who removes work it would be nice for a little more feedback as opposed to a link aimed at a much wider target. If anything it would help stop people being bitter (like futher up). --LasCummins (talk) 17:21, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Here is the deletion log entry, showing A1 as the criterion. Having looked at the article myself, I'm wondering if it notable enough (I might have chosen A7 as the deletion rationale myself). Frank  |  talk  17:25, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Nawlin SundanceSpa
You deleted an article I just started writing on sundance spas I was in the middle of adding the permission/sources. I am an authorized Sundance Spa repair center and have explict permission I also know the founder and intended to be purely informative. I was linking to the product support pdf on my website that Sundance allows the only possible reason I could see why you deleted it? I mean I was just adding/testing the related links and I hit save again and then I see your message. I find this ridiculous you delete my entry as I'm updating it yet if you even bothered to read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacuzzi you will see the blatant advertising in there external links you see that ? http://www.hottubsets.com/. I'm watching this page for a response I hope it's as timely as it took you to delete my page I also thought I would get a chance to protest it..

Request to restore Kenneth Cooper, harpsichordist
You cite A7 as your reason (not including the importance or significance of the subject), and I have never seen the article. But, when I needed it (trying to supplement the poor notes on one of the recordings Mr. Cooper is on), it wasn't there. And he's made dozens of recordings (with Yo-Yo Ma and Judith Blegen, among others), and is on the sound-tracks to the movie Valmont and the documentary Van Gogh Revisited (among others), and the video game Louis Cat Orze. Beyond this, Cooper has been the harpsichordist and/or conductor in hundreds of concerts and recitals, and been on Live From Lincoln Center. No one would question the other Kenneth Cooper (the aerobics specialist and motivational speaker) being on Wikipedia:  I would not question this musician's place here either. I hope you reconsider. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ryszardk (talk • contribs) 18:32, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * This was the entire content of the article that was deleted: "Kenneth Cooper is a harpsichordist residing in New York City. He teaches at The Manhattan School of Music.  He also performs on fortepiano."  I agree that we could use a better article -- feel free to write it, since you seem to know about him.  Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 18:37, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Zero reject
Just venting a little frustration here...

On the Zero reject article that you just deleted, I had placed a CSD5 tag on it saying I was researching it, and then after researching I declined the speedy with a edit summary of "There's context, and it's even a notable concept. Will attempt a rewrite". In the three minutes that rewrite took, you deleted the article as an A1 speedy.

Not picking on you specifically, but this happens often enough to leave me frustrated. (Where I've declined a speedy and another admin deletes in the few minutes it takes me to write an acceptable stub, without looking at the edit summary before deletion.) Any suggestions on how to solve this problem?-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  21:00, 25 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Sorry -- the CSD5 tag would have kept me from deleting, but it was gone when I saw the article. I should have looked at the history, though.  On the other hand, the one sentence that was there was pretty incoherent, and I don't think anyone was missing much not being able to access that sentence in the couple of minutes until you posted your version.

Why do you keep deleting TurnItUp Media? It is written exactly like SpiralFrog a former competitor prior to their demise. Every bit of detail in there is factual and business related.

Michael Manning, Low Art 2009
Ummm... Hiya,

Well, I wanted to say that I think my article was well cited, notable due to citing platinum status producers, (whom you can call, if need be), well put together, referenced, and very valid. If you could, please reinstate the article, or submit to me a few good reasons, things I could improve, to help make the article more valid.

The article was located at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Manning_(musician) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Izzyiscariot (talk • contribs) 11:59, 26 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Doesn't meet WP:BAND, only source cited was MySpace. NawlinWiki (talk) 12:07, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

I didn't cite a myspace. I cited Billy Atwell, David Musial, two platinum status music producers from NYC. I also cited Youtube, I cited Archive.org, the internet library, I cited SEVERAL things, but not one of them was myspace. Izzyiscariot (talk) 12:09, 26 March 2009 (UTC)


 * My mistake, I was looking at what you cited to me, Michael Manning (musician), rather than what I deleted, Michael Manning (Musician). That said, those sources refer to people other than Mr. Manning.  Has Mr. Manning himself been discussed in any reliable independent sources? NawlinWiki (talk) 12:11, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

It has not been reviewed independantly, but if it helps I've been in negotiations with Smart Trax LLC, and David Musial, whom has done works for the US Department of Education, and has been hailed worldwide as a multimedia producer. Also, Billy Atwell has commented on the work "Great take on that hippie shit Jefferson Airplane stuff! Bell bottoms make me want to join the Marines, lol! Your stuff is always profoundly visual." - Despite its informality, I'm sure that this meets the qualifications for notability, and I'm sure that several articles in the encyclopedia are not reviewed by independent sources or magazines. Perhaps I'm mistaken? Izzyiscariot (talk) 12:16, 26 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, you're mistaken -- subjects of articles here all need to have reliable independent sources. If there are some out there that don't, it just means we haven't found them yet, see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS.  Please consider reposting the article *when* Mr. Manning gets some independent recognition, not before.  NawlinWiki (talk) 12:18, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Special:AbuseFilter/history/52/item/265
Please be careful. That's the second very heavy-handed filter you've added with huge numbers of false positives, set immediately to disallow. It blocked words like 'thrust', 'nigger', 'rubeus', links to certain websites, 'must-see', 'cum', 'new location', and so on. ALL of these words have legitimate uses, and you caught a huge number of false positives.

I encourage you to think about every filter you're adding, and about whether it has a chance to cause false positives. If you're in any doubt at all, you must test that filter to make sure it doesn't cause any false positives! Remember that one bad filter with tens of false positives causes far more damage than ten vandal edits getting through (and let's be realistic, they'll always get through until we turn on blocking, filter or no filter).

A sample of false positives from that filter:
 * (recent)


 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&details=58727
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:AbuseLog&details=32795

... I'm sure you get the picture.

Given that this is a second instance, if your filters continue to block legitimate edits in large numbers, we may need to think about some way of reducing the number of false positives your filters generate, including requiring your filters be reviewed by other users or discussing your write access to the abuse filter. &mdash; Werdna  &bull;  talk  02:44, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Essential Eating Sprouted Foods
Please excuse any infractions as I am new to this process. This in no way intended to be an advertisement and followed the guidelines, using the same template as other food companies. This is a small company that is revolutionizing the flour milling industry and I felt the information was very WP worthy. The company authorized me to share their information. Now I realize that I may not be WP savvy enough to format it correctly. But I am willing to learn and follow directions.

Can you help or is there someone who can assist with correcting this? Unfortunately, I have spent many, many hours editing the information, just to have it removed. Specific suggestions would help.

Capril
Why did you delete Capril? Capril (Cape April) is a charity event which will be held for the first time this year in Australia as an awareness event for depression and in memory of Australian actor/writer/comedian Richard Marsland. It is inspired by the radio stunt, Capril, done for the Australian radio show Get This on the Triple M network. It's not fair to delete a page without actually trying to confirm that it is real. Could we please have it back? I've worked hard on Capril as a charity event and don't expect to see it treated as rubbish and nonsense.

The Capril page wasn't setup by myself, a participant had decided this on his own. Real means it's real. Notable means you just think it should be world wide, well it's the first run, sheesh, how can it be considered "notable" yet? Still, if you want to play Adolf Hitler then all heil mein furher!

No. If they have been created, it is something that needs to be investigated immediately. However, make sure it isn't a problem of the software.

Deletion of the Brittany Smyth Page
Hello, I'm looking for some information regarding why the Brittany Smyth page was once again deleted from Wikipedia.
