Battle of Karánsebes
The argument for deletion were many erros and sources from 50 years after the fact. While the details of the defeat of the Prussian army by the Turks may be debatable, the battle itself is fairly well documented. The first person report of A.J.Gross-Hoffinger (Leipzig, Nachdruuck, 1847) Die Geschichte des Joseph II, who was present at the fact was never published in Austria because of the embarrassment, but was published in Germany. There is a letter from Joseph II to the first minister Kaunitz (Austrian Archives, Lettres d'empereur Josph II à prince Kaunitz} Joseph writes "The disaster our army has suffered, because the cowardliness of some units, is at the moment imponderable. The panic spread everywhere, in the heart of army, in the heart of Caransebes people, and by all the way to Temesvar, what is about ten leagues (about 40 km). I cannot describe in words the violence and the terrible carnage that happened." (translation from a translation from French to Portuguese of the letter is mine). The details of the reason for the defeat, like the Gypsy camp and the liquor, and the dispute for the liquor may be disputable, but the battle is very well documented, as is the defeat, and it is documented by primary sources, like A.J.Gross-Hoffinger and Joseph II himself. - — Preceding unsigned comment added by Agranero (talk • contribs) 05:00, 15 December 2010

the article was aimed at providing information about a certain event and needed amends as it seemed promotional while it was actually not. -Asmajaved90 (talk) 19:41, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Keith_Kniveton
I created this as a stub, with the intention of expanding the article later. His page was blank before, so I dont see how some information is worse than none, especially since he is already listed as personal for Hawkwind. I was about to add some links to his works, when during a bathroom break, the page was subject to speedy deletion. Now I have lost my edit. So at least can you mail me that or undelete the page please. Thanks -JaSpaceRock (talk) 01:25, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 * [[Image:Yes check.svg|18px]] Userfied - the page has been restored to the userspace at User:JaSpaceRock/Keith Kniveton. By working on it there you should be allowed the time to write it in a manner that demonstrates notability. When you are ready to "go live" you can then move the page to the regular title. For future reference, you can always create a page initially as a subpage of your user (or user talk) space at a name just like this. If you are going to start an article with little content in the mainspace, you can start it with a template on top indicating you are actively working, such as In creation.

Allegria, Egypt
The administrator who deleted this page is not responding to my messages posted on his talk page. S/He claims to have deleted this page cause its an advertising, i am actually not advertising nor am I an employee of this entity or related to it in any way or manner, i just happen to be a huge fan of such a revolutionary in a country like Egypt, i realize now that the tone might need to be adjusted down, which i am happy to do, but outright deletion was actually quite agressive. I have always been a wikipedia fan, and truly believe that in those years, we should be seeking a lot of donating confirmed users, editors and administrators as opposed to being facist and abrupt in actions and deletions! -Citizenofcairo (talk) 15:13, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Impartial, informational articles are less free with terms like "prominent", "elite", "luxurious", and "world-class". It was warning flags like that which got the article deleted. (And don't abuse history by nonsensical use of the word fascist; it besmirches the memory of fascism's millions of victims.) -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  16:07, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

We recently updated the Kirkland's page with more accurate information about our community site mykirklands.com and the designers featured on it. This is a community site for decorating tips run by designers not paid by Kirkland's. The page was deleted because of "blatant promotion" but it was only giving information on the site and on the background of the Kirkland's company? I'm not sure what to do to get the page restored or edited in a way that suits wikipedia? -Megkirk (talk) 15:36, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

We wish that the Konoha Corner page be undeleted. We are a Naruto podcast and we have been podcasting for about 6 months now.

What changes do we have to make to the page so it can be posted to the public?

 * So let's see those sources. I can't find any recent ones. Media coverage should precede a Wikipedia article, not the other way around. A Wikipedia article is not part of a sensible marketing strategy for a film. Fences  &amp;  Windows  00:50, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

 Was CSD a year ago under A7, but it is not an A7 category. -174.46.204.210 (talk) 00:43, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Well you can bring it up with the deleting admin, arguing that as a published comic it would not have been eligible for CSD A7. Nevertheless, there was little content, two promotional quotes but no sources and hardly any assertion of importance. So the alternative is to create a better stub, maybe via Articles for deletion, or via restoration as userspace draft for improvement if you register an account.--Tikiwont (talk) 09:08, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

 * ❌. A copyright release requires more than just assertion of permission, but that was not the only reason for deletion: the page was also written in promotional terms, and did not give any indication that the restaurant was notable enough to have an article.

Slovio
 Slovio is the first viable and usable inter-slavic langauge created since the demise of Old Church Slavonic, it was created in 1999 Websites: www.slovio.com www.interslavic.org, www.youtube.com/interslavic etc, etc. The creation of Slovio has "inspired" more than a dozen plagiarized copy-cat language "projects". One or several of the plagiators have been behind the removal of the article from wikipedia, and one of them especially, Jan van Steenbergen (Ijseren) to this day keeps removing all links to Slovio and keeps re-writing history and facts. In fact he has made from wikipedia his own PRIVATE and CENSORED encyclopedia for self-promotion. I want to caution you that Mr Steenbergen has several wikipedia logins (check the IPs) so it would not be so obvious what he is doing and altering. He is promoting his own "language" Slovianski, which he had "created" in 2006, after he has been a long-time member of various Slovio-forums, including forums on Yahoo and www.blognik.com. His "sudden creative inspiration" was a to make a plagiarized copy of Slovio and subsequently erase all mention of Slovio from wikipedia, as well the constant re-writing of history of Slavic conlangs in order to promote his own plagiarized copy-cat language. Please restore Slovio to its proper place and ban, permanently Mr Jan van Steenbergen (and all his logins)from Wikipedia. his censorship, self-promotion and removal and alteration of facts are only hurting wikipedia reputation. By the way the most important and most influential, the first and the original interslavic language of the modern era SLOVIO has been removed from wikipedia because it wasnt important enough, but about a dozen half-witted "linguistic creations" of Mr Jan van Steenbergen, and others found a place in wikipedia. ?!? Please check carefully the entire history of Mr Steenbergens "contributions and alterations" (under all his variou logins) in order to get and idea about the size of fraud and censorship that is going on here.)) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blognik (talk • contribs) 10:01, 19 December 2010
 * ❌. The article was deleted as a result of the deletion discussion at Articles for deletion/Slovio (2nd nomination) so, as stated at the top of this page, it cannot be undeleted here. The decision to delete was endorsed at Deletion review/Log/2007 August 10 and Deletion review/Log/2008 September 8, and the title has been protected against creation because it was re-created so many times. User, who closed the deletion debate, has retired: if you want the article back you could approach user who protected the title, and if he does not agree you will have to take it for a third time to WP:Deletion review. You accuse user  of trying to suppress mention of Slovio and of sockpuppetry (using multiple accounts); if you have evidence, you should report it at WP:SPI, but I note that IJzeren Jan actually argued to keep Slovio at the deletion discussion, and also started the first Deletion Review requesting restoration. Your user page declares that you are Mark Hucko, the inventor of Slovio: you should read Wikipedia's policy WP:Conflict of interest. JohnCD (talk) 12:20, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Generally, you should avoid substantial content on your user page that is unrelated to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a general hosting service, so your user page is not a personal website. Your user page is about you as a Wikipedian, and pages in your user space should be used as part of your efforts to contribute to the project.

Kodiak Island UFO sighting
This incident received international attention and has been sourced numerous times by ufology fan sites, as well as Alaskan media outlets. However, the other enthusiasts and myself found ourselves in somewhat of an edit war with Beeblebrox, due to him gratuitously removing sources, in order to guarantee the page's secured deletion. Once he removed enough information and he himself became an administrator, (after failed attempts at nominating it for deletion), he ignored any consensus of the editors whatsoever and simply deleted the article. I have been busy this last year and only recently did I fully realize what had been done. I am aware of my inefficiency to appropriately edit articles while in high school, but the three years since I created the page, I feel as though the page could grow and become an apt article. Therefore, I strong endorse the revitalization of the page and the opportunity to establish its notability on Wikipedia. It was an internationally-aware incident, so it has merit.

SKLZ
I would like to see more closely how it was written in a biased viewpoint. SKLZ is a very reputable brand known globally and having annual sales of over 40 million. The company is the only of its kind to have full lines of skill development training aids across several mainstream sports all supported by quality content and soon to be training programs co-developed with Athletes Performance. Would there be any way that this article could be rewritten to support sports training and skill development which is the company's primary focus? -Nicole.Roberts828 (talk) 16:37, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
 * There was not a syllable in that "article" that was not calculated to sell that company and its products. We are not a venue for advertisements. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  17:10, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

What specifically made it an advertisement? Was it the voice, links, etc. that made it promotional? Any input would be helpful. Thank you.Nicole.Roberts828
 * A quick google search indicates that you are employed by SKLZ to do marketing. That is not the only thing that makes it promotional, but it is one of them.  If this company is genuinely notable, it is inevitable that people will read about it in independent sources, and write about it from a neutral point of view.  If you are interested in making Wikipedia better, you can still do that by choosing one of the many articles on the encyclopedia in which you do not have a conflict of interest, and working to make it better.  There are many things you can do for the encyclopedia that would not conflict with your work at all. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 18:41, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

 * But they were incorrectly tagged as unfree. If you had looked as the uploader's screen name(User:CCVFDWebmaster) it was obvious that this person was a member of that department, and in fact had his screen name deleted because of it. For the record, during one of those deletion debates([[File:Chaires-Capitola VFD - Air, Power & Light Trailer.jpg]]), I actually made a phone call to the chief and explained the situation. Later on that day I had a return call from him, and he said he knew who wrote it, and said he'd tell the person who did it to show proof of permission. When I mentioned this confirmation on the FfD board for that file, it was completley overlooked, and deleted anyhow. DanTD (talk) 14:42, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

Nancy Burson
reasoning -68.175.13.55 (talk) 05:04, 26 December 2010 (UTC) Dear Wikipedia. I'm resubmitting this for your approval as I didn't realize there was a problem. Please let me know if this is still unacceptable to you. Many thanks, Nancy Burson

Nancy Burson is best known for her pioneering work in morphing technology, which age enhances the human face. Her Human Race Machine, which allows people to view themselves as a different race, is used worldwide as a diversity tool that provides students with the profound visual experience of being another race. She was responsible for the creation of computer morphing technology, which was later acquired as software used by the FBI and National Center for Missing Children to assist in locating missing children and adults. Her Human Race Machine, which allows people to view themselves as a different race, was featured on Oprah in 2006. Currently there are Human Race Machines touring the U.S. college and University market.

Burson's art has been shown at museums and galleries worldwide, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Venice Biennale, the International Center of Photography, NYC, and the Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston. "Seeing and Believing", her traveling 2002 retrospective originating at the Grey Art Gallery, was nominated for Best Solo Museum Show of the Year in New York City by the International Association of Art Critics. Burson has taught at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts and was a visiting professor at Harvard University in 1998.

In recent years she has collaborated with Creative Time, the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council, and Deutsche Bank in completing several important public art projects in New York City. These projects include the billboard "There's No Gene For Race" and the poster/postcard project "Focus on Peace." The LMCC's "Focus on Peace" project distributed 30,000 postcards and 7,000 posters around the site of the World Trade Center to coincide with the first anniversary of 9/11.

She has authored three text-based books and four books of her photography. As a photographer, writer, inventor, healer, and minister, Burson lectures and teaches worldwide, providing first hand experience with the unseen. Currently, Burson is conducting presentations and workshops to familiarize her audience with the material included in her newer, text-based books. In the past few years, she has created public presentations at many diverse venues including The United Nations, The Glastonbury Symposium, The Prophets Conference, Bodhi Tree Books, the Cincinnati Art Museum, East West Books (NYC), and Breathe Books (Baltimore). She lives and works from her loft in SoHo, in downtown Manhattan.

the page was deleted on no basis at all. There are millions of other article with similar television show data page. I tried to revive the article with complete new content written by me which was again deleted. The show is prominent Indian television show and its really strange deleting the page when there are million other pages with similar content. The original deletion tag was put in by an unidentified ip which I presume was sort of vandalism. The show page had proper infobox, plot, cast, reference and external link. I do not see why the article is deleted at all. -Vin99 (talk) 17:24, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

However, I closed the AFD on this article back in June as redirect but I made it clear in my closing statement that it was strictly an editorial decision on my part and that there was actually no consensus to do anything. Therefore, it's disappointing that 2 experienced administrators are trying to "enforce" a "redirect AFD result".
