The article was deleted because two accusations of "No indication of importance" or A7, but the subject has seven official music videos on YouTube with over 250,000 views, including two official music videos with almost 2 million views, almost 75,000 Facebook Likes, almost 50,000 Followers on Twitter, and over 275,000 mixtape downloads on Datpiff.com.

JSPWiki
The reason for deletion given was lack of notability which users for example on the JSPWiki users list do not believe is warranted. A forum member has posted for example the following:


 * Usage in corporations: http://www.jspwiki.org/wiki/JSPWikiSites#section-JSPWikiSites-Corporations
 * JSPWiki is used in the Liferay portal server: http://www.liferay.com/de/community/forums/-/message_boards/view_message/3363055#_19_message_3363055
 * Recent article in a well-known german computer magazine on social software at Apache, referring to JSPWiki: http://www.heise.de/developer/artikel/Federlesen-9-Social-Software-bei-der-Apache-Software-Foundation-1626106.html

Phabricator
reasoning -208.87.59.126 (talk) 18:31, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

I think Phabricator is now significantly more notable than many of the bug tracking systems listed on Comparison_of_issue-tracking_systems However, when the article is deleted this makes it hard to compare against the hundred or so other bug/issue tracking systems.

The deletion page mentions that the article was deleted due to having no clear evidence of notability at the time (July 2011). I think that has changed after a year, as many engineers and organizations clamor to find out about using Phabricator, and plenty of reputable projects are using it.

I am not a Phabricator user myself. I am just a software engineer in the process of trying to select a good bug tracking platform. Comparing the various systems out there is made harder when Wikipedia articles on notable systems have been deleted! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.87.59.126 (talk • contribs)


 * ❌ The product may or may not be notable - the "article" about it sure didn't suggest any type of notability required for an encyclopedia article.  Remember, Wikipedia is not a listing of products/companies (✉→BWilkins←✎) 18:44, 18 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Is there some way to see the original "article" so it can be revised into something encylopediac? I am not an expert on it or other issue tracking software, but I think I could get the informed users to get cracking on it. The article was deleted in July 2011 when there may have been less notability at the time (as Phabracitor had only been open-sourced just then). According to their homepage Phabricator is now used by Airtime, Asana, Dropbox, deviantART, MemSQL, Path, Quora, and more. I know Wikipedia is not the best place to get overview on issue tracking software given wP:NOTDIRECTORY, but if we delete the notable ones and favors the unnotable tools on Comparison_of_issue-tracking_systems then it becomes even worse: misleading.

CDash
reasoning -208.87.59.126 (talk) 18:53, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

I am trying to make a reasonably informed decision for selecting among continuous integration software. One notable open-source dashboard software package is CDash, but the link from Continuous_integration points to this deleted article.

This seems odd to me. I'm not sure if half of the software packages listed on Continuous_integration would meet the criterion of notability. I mean come on, Cascade by Conifer Systems? I can find you the guy who wrote that and talk about how that project went...

CDash is already used as the tracking backend by plenty of notable software projects featured on Wikipedia, so I think that could meet the criterion for notability.

I do acknowledge that CTest and CPack do not have their own Wikipedia articles. The CTest part seems reasonable to me that this should just be part of the CMake article. As for CPack, maybe that would go on an article by itself linked to some comparison of installer generators software. Alternatively these all (CDash, CTest, CPack) could be setup as as subsections of the CMake article.

ClimateTalk Open Standards
It appears that this page was deleted/removed due to the fact it read similar to a press release. I can understand why that is an issue, however if the end result is deletion there should be consistency across all wikipedia articles. If you were to look up BACnet, there is a similar disclaimer at the top of the page and it too reads much like a press release. I propose that the article ClimateTalk Open Standards be presented in the same fashion, whereby users wishing to read the article are able to view the page but are presented with the same disclaimer as is found on the BACnet article. The disclaimer reads- This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. The ClimateTalk Open Standards article should be undeleted, but should also inform readers of its unsourced nature. -Plancaster (talk) 20:24, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red5_Media_Server

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red5_(retailer)

and

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red5

at the very least we need a disambiguation page here please - ie: links talk view Redirect: for

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red5

the retailer is grabbing all search engine attention since it is in correct name space

another solution might be

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red5_(Media_Server) - or similar, plus a disambiguation page anyway.

at present, the retailer space has gained a (canonical/search) advantage - surprise!.


 * [[Image:X mark.svg|18px]] Not done - the page at Red5 was deleted via community consensus. REFUND can't overwrite that.  (See below if you wish to contest that deletion.)  The page at Red5 Media Server was the same software, and has now also been deleted, and the German page also appears to be the same thing (but is not relevant for the English Wikipedia anyway).  That only leaves the retailer, which I have now moved to the Red5 page. Not what you wanted, I know, but the correct thing to do.
 * If you wish to try to rebuild the Red5 software (Red5.org) page using reliable sources, let me know and I will provide you with the deleted content. I am not sure if it can be done (i.e. not sure it is notable), but I am will to let you try. --ThaddeusB (talk) 04:32, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

Just BASIC

Further info Somebody with username CelestineProphecy (?) created the page and would have been notified. It doesn't look like he's around any more.

I suggest contacting the user/editor who deleted the page. Explain that leodescal has a history of attacking Shoptalk Systems and related software because of a personal vendetta. I suggest sharing the following links to prove notability.

Navigators USA
reasoning:

This deletion was done by a user with the tag Nyttend who describes himself:

I'm a conservative Christian (Reformed Presbyterian) from west-central Ohio. Things about me...hmmm...I'm a student of history, especially Roman and Russian...a fan of folk legends (although I've not read many)...a lover of language and student of Old English...an adult leader with the Boy Scouts.. .

I do not believe Nyttend comes from an an unbiased position. Part of the criteria for deletion is that there are no secondary or tertiary substantiation of the information. I found plenty of independent articles by searching 'Navigators USA articles. What gives?

It appears that user Nyttend is pushing a personal agenda into wikipedia space by deleting this page. With the recent controversy surrounding the Boy Scouts and their stance on excluding gay scouts and agnostics, people will be wanting to learn more about the alternative scouting organizations to the Boy Scouts. More information on Navigators USA is at http://navigatorsusa.ning.com/. The deletion by user Nyttend represents a case of vandalism.

Recent information regarding the establishment of a new group is in the media at

 * While as a non-bigoted Christian and ex-Scout myself I personally am in sympathy with the goals of the organization, nonetheless Wikipedia is not here to promote your cause, no matter how noble. The deleted article was deleted for the reasons stated: it contained no credible assertions of notability. Nyttend is one of our solid editors; and his userpage clearly shows his own interests, in the interest of transparency: that does not justify ad hominem attacks on his editorial decisions. If you believe that the organization is notable, then open an editing account here, create an article with verifiable, neutral reliable sources, and we'll be delighted to see it. -- Orange Mike &#x007C;  Talk  16:04, 21 July 2012 (UTC)


 * [[Image:X mark.svg|18px]] Not done - Please do not make assumptions of bad faith. It does not help your case and could get you blocked for personal attacks.  The article was properly deleted as the page made no claim to notability.  Additionally, Nyytend could not have forseen a (local) newspaper writing about the group two years after he deleted it.


 * I have done a quick search for notability and think it is very questionable at best. However, if you would like to try to write a proper (referenced) article about the group, I would be happy to restore a copy for you to work on outside of mainspace.

Hank Harrison
reasoning:


 * 11:11, 21 April 2011 RHaworth (talk | contribs) deleted page Hank Harrison (Hank Harrison is famous solely for being the father of Courtney Love. Isn't there a rule on Wikipedia that "famous by association doesn't deserve a page of its own?)

To say that, "Hank Harrison is famous solely for being the father of Courtney Love" is an insult to anyone who has read any of his 12 books. Hank Harrison was famous years before Ms. Love was born. He is the founder of the LSD Rescue Project, the first drug abuse crisis intervention organization in the World (1963) Harrison was the first manager and organizer with the Grateful Dead Band (Warlocks) and stayed on as a consultant until 1978. His Grateful Dead artifacts and research materials are now collected in the University of California Santa Cruz Archives. Harrison has also written 12 books, Novels, Poetry, Short Stories and hundreds of magazine articles which have nothing to do with Courtney Love. Harrison studied under Saul Alinsky in Chicago and is recognized as a first rate social organizer. He has appeared on hundreds of television and radio shows world wide and his books have achieved best selling status and positive critical acclaim. Hank Harrison's profile must be reinstated in Wikipedia and should have never been deleted without review. -184.8.106.20 (talk) 15:31, 21 July 2012 (UTC)

It was a very rich and useful historical page deleted by some temporary user who does not exist now.

Adelita E. De Mestas
Was deleted under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. This is JohnCD response:


 * " Just being an actor is not enough for a Wikipedia article. The reference you gave showed her as one in a list of over seventy names credited for that production. See WP:Notability and WP:Notability (people), particularly the section WP:ENTERTAINER. JohnCD (talk) 11:14, 22 July 2012 (UTC)"


 * I was also contacted by AllyD proposed deletion on grounds of conflict of interest  AllyD (talk) 08:59, 22 July 2012 (UTC).

However not only have I not violated :


 * "Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
 * Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
 * Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
 * Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies."
 * Writing anything too flattering or too disparaging.

In truth I wrote a very simple article stating she was a Principle actor for Resident Evil her occupation and name. I really don't know where AllyD was going with her editing. It does not meet any requirements for deletion or notification. What to do with overzealous editors :/ ? AllyD doesn't even have a talk page set up so I can communicate with her to dispute her nomination for deletion?

For John I have sourced all the information for this actor again for JohnCD he was very misinformed my sources are below they indicate Adelita De Mestas is not on a list of over 70 Actors as indicated by JohnCD, actually she is one of 6 principle actors on the computer generated film and game as part of the elite squad "Echo Six" Raccoon City. There are a total of 8 non principle actors. These Actors are the face of the characters for future films and videos for each character. All other actors are voice actors NOT visual Actor/portrayers. Principle roles in generated films and games like in the movie AVATAR are computer generated yet are still emoting and the facial expressions and delivery are scanned. This must be differentiated. (I sourced this for John to as he seems to be unfamiliar with the media as well.)

Adelita E. De Mestas should not have a speedy delete as the Actor is portrayed in Resident Evil Raccoon City in a national and Global distribution for the Japanese media franchise Capcom. It is a franchise has been expanded to comic books, novels and novelizations, sound dramas, live-action and computer-generated feature films, and a variety of collectibles and action figures. She is a Principle Actor for Raccoon City for X-box and Ps3 Games. She is an onscreen credited Actor and is "THE FACE"of Carolyn Floyd AKA Willow as well as any other future films and videos for the character.

Further I have now sourced not only the credit list, but indicated this actor is significant as a principle actor on a cast list of 6 for Global Distribution for Capcom comic books, novels, novelizations, sound dramas, live-action, computer-generated feature films, and a variety of collectibles. In addition I have sourced how computer generated games and films are made like in the film AVATAR. If the actors in AVATAR are credited It seems to reason Wikipedia can approve a page for other Main Principle actors for other computer generated films and games that have Global distribution.

Below is the website sourced for you and the clip for the Visual Actors not voice Actors for your perusal. I am sourcing the credit again. Included in this list are non principle actors. This should clear up any concerns over the number of Visual Actors used for the face of the franchise for Raccoon City Echo Six as was indicated by admin JohnCD.

 * ✅ - text of article emailed. Reasons for deletion:
 * Wikipedia is not a noticeboard for people and organizations to write about themselves. For that, there are sites like Myspace and Facebook, but this is an encyclopedia. The article reads like the project's manifesto about itself, full of EU-speak about work packages and project organization, lists of worthy aims, "turning out to be a true collective effort" etc: not an encyclopedia article which should give a neutral, outside view. For background see User:JohnCD/Not a noticeboard.
 * Notability requires references that show "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." The references given were nearly all either to the project's website or associated ones like euromed.net or, in the case of ones like hackwriters.net and worldmathaba.com, actually written by you!

Kimberly Freeman
The reason I think the page should be undeleted is because Kimberly Freeman is a pretty famous singer. I have seen the reason this page was deleted and it is because she is not notable enough. Kimberly Freeman had published 6 albums and 9 singles. She has also received many awards and has been featured in magazines. She also appeared in AdventureQuest Worlds,(a massive online role playing game) and on Americas Got Talent. She have around 1400 Facebook fans, 7000 twitter followers, 26000 Myspace friends, 3000 Youtube subscribers, over 7000,000 views on her music videos and thousands of videos made by her fans. She even have a website for her band One Eyed Doll where you can by her music and merchandise. I think that makes her pretty notable. -174.1.215.93 (talk) 02:41, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself.

BOFI Advisor
The information about BOFI Advisor is well within the parameters laid down by Wikipedia. If the term “institution” has been interpreted to mean “school”, then I would like to point out that “institution” in the context of BOFI Advisor was used just to imply a financial or banking institution. Many established banks are classified as “financial or banking institutions” in industry communication and numerous media platforms.

BOFI is a pioneer of internet banking and in this respect it deserves to be in the Wikipedia encyclopedia. In this age of internet banking the significance or importance of one of the pioneers of this form of banking cannot be underscored.

Wikipedia is not here to help you represent yourselves to the public; if the article is to be kept, it needs to establish Notability, which is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

The page has not been deleted, your contribution is still there in the history, but another editor, redirected it, for the reason given in her edit summary: "Redirect to existing band page until there's something encyclopedic to say about him." Looking at the content before that, I have to say I agree with her: "Old school metalhead who's been seen swinging his studded belt at laholmsägen, Halmstad. Used to frequent a mid nineties bar called BM... " etc is material for a gossip column or a fan-site, not an encyclopedia. Unless there are references to show WP:Notability independent of his band, a redirect to its article is the best way to cover him. But this is a matter for editing and discussion. More advice on your talk page soon. JohnCD (talk) 22:51, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

I understand your position on why the article can't be restored, but I'm not sure I share it. If someone adds copyrighted material to an existing article we simply revert that edit and move on. I may be wrong, but as far as I know we rarely oversight that edit but the old version is instead still available in the article history, so there appears to be a discrepancy in policy enforcement there.
