Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Still Pending (2nd)

I'm confused about Still Pending AFD
Hi there. I'm looking back through the edits on the Still Pending article and it appears that you "resurrected" a historical AFD discussion that was subsequently overturned. I am somewhat of a newbie to all of this so please forgive my ignorance. The original AFD is here: Articles_for_deletion/Still_Pending and when I view the history on the article, this is what appears as the edit you made. It looks like someone then came in and moved your nomination to a new location. Perhaps you were unaware of the overturn of the deletion that occurred? Can you please help me to understand what has happened. I did quite a bit of research and writing for this article and it apparently meets the notability criteria since the deletion was overturned. Thank you. Stampsations 01:18, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey Stampsations, I wish I was smart enough to resurrect anything! It seems that what happened is that the slight name change in the article did not reflect the previous Afd nomination and subsequence decision.  When I nominated the new article and started the new discussion page an Administrator remembered the previous Afd and was able to pull the archives and place them on the new discussion page.  Either way, it looks like a keeper, especially with the new sources added.  Hope this explains a little — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shoessss (talk • contribs) 13:34, 11 May 2007
 * Thanks for the clarification. Since it appears that this was an honest oversight, isn't there a way to "undo" the AFD nomination, or does it have to run its course? It appears that the article will be kept, but it seems like an unnecessary process. Stampsations 06:22, 12 May 2007 (UTC)


 * What happened is that user nominated the article for deletion (for the second time) on  23:05, 7 May 2007 (see diffs: ). However, the user linked to the old, already closed discussion of  7 April 2007 (Articles for deletion/Still Pending). If an article is nominated a second time, however, a new discussion page should be created. I did that for the nominator and created Articles for deletion/Still Pending (2nd), where the original nominator then explained his reason for deletion (diff: ), not knowing that the deletion had been overturned at DRV on april 17 (diff:. As we are now back on AfD, it would be best to let it run its course and see what happens. Regards, --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 17:34, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
