Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Wikipedia:RFU)

    This page is NOT for challenging the outcome of deletion discussions or to address the pending deletion of any page.

    Requests for undeletion is a process intended to assist users in two cases. The first case is restoring pages or files that were uncontroversially deleted via proposed deletion, under certain speedy deletion criteria (such as maintenance deletions (G6) or stale Articles for creation drafts (G13)), or in deletion debates with little or no participation other than the nominator. In the second use case, this page is also intended to serve as a central location to request that deleted content be "userfied", i.e., restored as a draft or emailed to you; this way, the content can be improved upon prior to re-insertion into the mainspace, or used elsewhere (you may also make a request directly to one of the administrators listed here). Be clear as to which namespace is intended, when requesting a refund of a deleted article.

    This means that content deleted after discussion – through deletion processes – may in some cases be provided to you, but such controversial page deletions will not be overturned through this process but through deletion review instead. Copyright violations and attack pages will not be provided.

    Do not request that pages or media deleted under speedy deletion criteria F7, F9, F11, U5, A7, A9, A11, G3, G4, G10, G11 or G12 be undeleted here.

    Instructions for special cases:

    Not done – Substantial text has been copied from https://flairstech.com. For instance, a passage which begins "has grown rapidly and steadily" is verbatim from the web site. There is also a copy of the sentence:
    Since day one, a significant part of FlairsTech’s success as a top-tier Software Services company goes to its people, those we work with, and those who work with us.
    The deleting admin also called out the promotional language in the article, under the criterion WP:CSD#G11. Consider rewriting the article from scratch in your own words, and do so in a neutral manner that doesn't constantly emphasize the greatness of the company. For example, from the article, it is hard to figure out that the company is based in Montreal. The article is so busy promoting that it doesn't say much about the actual company.

    Haroun (Fadhiweyn)

    [edit]

    This article was soft deleted at AFD. I didn't have time to analyze the sources, but I had briefly checked the article and it appeared to be an extensive history of this Somali base with dozens of references. The nominating user has a history of poor AFDs and not doing sufficient BEFORE searches; given this, I think more discussion should have taken place before deleting – considering how detailed / referenced the article was (i.e. good chance of being notable). —BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:04, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @BeanieFan11: Done – as a contested soft deletion, the article has been restored upon request.
    However, as this would be eligible for deletion immediately upon its restoration, I have chosen to instead draftify it as Draft:Haroun (Fadhiweyn). This will provide you the time and space to address the issue(s) raised in the deletion discussion. When you have done so, please do not move this into main article space yourself, but instead submit it for further review. - UtherSRG (talk) 21:50, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @UtherSRG: I don't think its going to go anywhere in draftspace. I am not knowledgeable on the subject and thus do not have an idea on how to improve it, nor did the deletion discussion contain anything of substance, other than that the sources were "broken." BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:15, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    WP:RFU is not the place to debate whether an article shouldn't have been deleted. Please find WP:DRV and open a discussion there. Consider my draftification as a means for y'all to discuss things in the open while being able to see the text and its history. - UtherSRG (talk) 22:25, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @UtherSRG: WP:RFU is not the place to debate whether an article shouldn't have been deleted. – so, even though only one person (the nominator, known for a history of poor AFDs) supported deletion (because the sources were "broken") and the closer said Editors can request the article's undeletion. – it would have to go to DRV to be restored to mainspace?? BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:31, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Indeed. You can request the undeletion. And you did. I can decide that it is still not suitable for main article space and draftify it, which I did. If you can't improve it, then it'll fade back to deletion. You can feel free to submit the draft as is to AFC review and see if anyone finds it acceptable, or offers any better advice on how it can be improved. You can go to WP:Teahouse to ask for advise or help on improving it. - UtherSRG (talk) 22:40, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    What's the difference between this and disputing e.g. a PROD tag on the article – Why would, in this case, I be required to have it submitted to AFC? You said it would be eligible for deletion immediately if restored; what speedy deletion criterion does it meet? Do you have advice on how to sufficiently "improve" it? BeanieFan11 (talk) 22:57, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    As an article that has been deleted and not improved, all of the reasons for deleting it still stand. Since it went through AFD once, it can easily go through AFD and fail again. With no improvements, it would be an even easier case for deletion. As well, a second AFD deletion would automatically be a hard deletion and not a soft one, even if the 2nd AFD were identical to the first. As a draft, it has more time (six months with no one making an edit) for you to garner support for the draft, or to gather resources to improve it. Further, if it is deleted as a draft, it would be G13, and so can easily be restored through WP:RFU. - UtherSRG (talk) 01:21, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    According to WP:SOFTDELETE, the article can be restored for any reason on request. Just because an article was deleted does not mean it should have been. The only reason given for deletion was that Most sources in this article are either broken or not related to it at all. and that the nominator did not find further sources. However, I heavily doubt that an appropriate BEFORE search was done, given that this is a 1910s Somali military base/government (the coverage would likely be offline journals in the Somali language) and the nominator has a history of poor AFDs (see their AFDStats page, which shows a success rate of ~50% on a few dozen nominations) – and no one else commented besides that user. To be honest, it'd probably be better to go through AFD again than just sit in draftspace and get deleted, given that we might have some people actually participate, as my access of sources likely to cover this is extremely limited. BeanieFan11 (talk) 01:36, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    can be restored for any reason is not "must be restored for any reason". I'm done with this discussion. I've listed plenty of options for your next steps. Good luck. - UtherSRG (talk) 02:50, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    FWIW, if someone can decline a request even when it says that it can be restored for any reason on request, then that wording doesn't make sense; if that were really the case, it'd say something like that it "may be restored on request", as the "any reason" part would be unnecessary. The only "options" you've really given me are vague things such as 'fix the issues from the deletion discussion' (which were even more vague), "garner support for the draft", and DRV, which, as far as I'm aware, is not for issues such as these.

    @Jax 0677: Not done – this Requests for Undeletion process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially, and does not apply to articles deleted after a deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted after a discussion took place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Louis Mangione, it cannot be undeleted through this process. However, if you believe that the outcome of the discussion did not reflect the consensus of the participants, or that significant new information has come to light since the article was deleted, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, Sandstein (talk · contribs). After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. UtherSRG (talk) 21:57, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    There is nothing to stop you doing that, but they will have to contain better sources than the previous versions, or they will simply be deleted again.

Therefore, I guess we could recreate this article more legitimately, without involving a banned user. —RyanW1995 (talk) 09:01, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @Asphonixm: Correct, since you are an editor in good standing, you may recreate this article. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 09:44, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    [edit]

    Template:Optional link was deleted after perfunctory discussion because it was unused seven months after its creation. I believe this is the appropriate forum since this was a deletion debate with little or no participation other than the nominator.

    I frequently edit templates, and created this template because I thought it would simplify a recurring challenge in writing templates.

    For example, at the moment this code:

    {{Cite glbtq.com/sandbox |archive-date=2007-11-14 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071114135345/http://www.glbtq.com/literature/uranian_poets%2C2.html |archive-url1=https://web.archive.org/web/20071223143853/http://www.glbtq.com/literature/uranian_poets.html |archive-url2=https://web.archive.org/web/20071114135345/http://www.glbtq.com/literature/uranian_poets%2C2.html |archive-url3=https://web.archive.org/web/20071223160327/http://www.glbtq.com/literature/uranian_poets,3.html |article=Uranian Poetry |article-url=http://www.glbtq.com/literature/uranian_poets%2C2.html |date=June 19, 2006 |first=Warren |last=Johansson |orig-year=2002 |page=2}}
    

    produces this:

    Those additional pages are optionally linked, but to make Template:Cite glbtq.com do that without the brackets around the page numbers, I'd have to... rewrite Template:Optional link. —Daask (talk) 10:32, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I'm not seeing the point of this cite template in the first place. What you are using as url1 should be the url used, then indicate with {{rp|2}} that the supporting text is on page 2. Or simply only provide the url/archive-url. I do not see the need for multiple links in the citation. - UtherSRG (talk) 14:34, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Bruse Wane

    [edit]

    Enter your reasoning here and then click the "Publish changes" button below —Edward Myer (talk) 11:32, 28 December 2024 (UTC) The article Bruse Wane was written with out a draft. On December 21st 2024 an editor claimed Insufficient reliable and independent sources to establish Notability. The article also fails the 12 criteria of WP:Music. Before its deletion on December 28th, the article was greatly improved. It provided reliable and independent sources to establish the subject notability, and it meet the criteria of WP:Music This article should have not been deleted as the improvements nullified the original instance for it's proposed deletion.[reply]

    @Edward Myer: please carefully read the instructions at the top of this page, including but not only the part which says "This page is NOT for challenging the outcome of deletion discussions". There was clear consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bruse Wane for deletion. You may be able to get the article content draftified for further editing, but we will not simply undelete the article and overturn the community consensus expressed in that AfD discussion. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:44, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    الهكر العربي - Arab hacking

    [edit]

    I would like to submit an objection to the nomination for the speedy deletion of the user page "الهكر العربي - Arab Hacking" according to section G11 of the speedy deletion criteria. I believe there has been a misunderstanding in this case.

    The page that was created is not promotional in any way. The information included is accurate and relates to my activities and technical projects that I share in the fields of ethical hacking and cybersecurity. The page was created to document this area of knowledge and contribute to raising technical and community awareness, not for personal or commercial promotion.

    The use of the name "الهكر العربي - Arab Hacking" is not intended for self-promotion or for any commercial activity, but is simply the account name I use on various platforms to represent my tech channel that provides educational content in the fields of technology and cybersecurity. I never intended to use the page for promotional purposes; rather, it aims only to present information in an encyclopedic manner regarding the activities I am involved in.

    I kindly ask you to reconsider this nomination, as the content does not align with the promotional or advertising standards set by Wikipedia's policies.

    Thank you for your understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arab hacking (talkcontribs) 06:11, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Arab hacking (talk) 06:34, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @Arab hacking: this is the wrong place to raise such matters; your user page was deleted under U5 (user page content not compliant with our user page policy) and G11 (promotional). As it says on top of this page, both categories are excluded from the scope of Requests for Undeletion. You may take up the matter with the deleting administrator, although FWIW, I fully concur with the deletion, so don't get your hopes up too much.

    @Horse Eye's Back: Not done – this Requests for Undeletion process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially, and does not apply to articles deleted after a deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted after a discussion took place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Greg Flynn (businessman), it cannot be undeleted through this process. However, if you believe that the outcome of the discussion did not reflect the consensus of the participants, or that significant new information has come to light since the article was deleted, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, Star Mississippi (talk · contribs). After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. UtherSRG (talk) 22:27, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi, I'm FloridaArmy, and I would like to request the undeletion of this draft deleted under CSD G13. Please restore the page so that I can make edits to it. Thank you. FloridaArmy (talk) 22:08, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @FloridaArmy: Done – as a draft that was deleted under CSD G13, the page has been restored upon request. However, the draft namespace, though it is intended to provide some breathing room to create and develop a page without the time pressure of immediate review, is not for the indefinite hosting of material that is unsuitable for inclusion in the article mainspace. Please continue to work on the draft so that it meets Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for inclusion and then submit it for review—at the least, prior to another six months elapsing. When you are ready, a review can be requested by placing this code at the top of the page and then saving: {{subst:submit}}. UtherSRG (talk) 22:27, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
