Deletion of Annamalai Kuppusamy[edit]

Hi @Explicit,

I recently stumbled upon the draft page for the Wikipedia article on Annamalai Kuppusamy, which was deleted following a discussion almost four years ago in 2020. Originally, the article aimed to highlight Annamalai Kuppusamy as an Indian Police Service officer, but his trajectory has since shifted towards politics. He currently serves as the state president of Tamil Nadu for his party and has participated in Tamil Nadu legislative assembly elections, alongside his current candidacy in India's general elections.

Interestingly, his article exists on the Tamil Wikipedia and was created by User:பயனர்:Almighty34 who also happens to be an administrator on the Tamil Wikipedia. Given this, I believe there should be consistency across languages in Wikipedia.

Notably, Kuppusamy meets the criteria for WP:NPOL due to extensive media coverage, with mentions in nearly every major reliable Indian source listed in WP:RSP, including The Indian Express which also has a profile page on him. He has also received coverage from The Guardian and Al Jazeera English which is rare for local politicians in India.

If the reasons outlined above still do not suffice, then I propose that if the English version of the article is considered insufficient, the corresponding Tamil language page should similarly be removed and restricted to admin creation only to ensure uniformity across languages.

Looking forward to your thoughts on this matter. Xoocit (talk) 17:22, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A kitten for you![edit]

Here's a kitty for you! Thanks for your nice work around WP:AFD and WP:PROD. Cheers!

Hi Explicit. Hope you are well. I’m writing to discuss the deletion of the page I created earlier today. Everything was sourced and double-checked before posting. Please communicate your reasons for deletion so that I can understand and begin creating a new page. Taylor312 (talk) 18:54, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Taylor312: The page you created was not deleted, but moved into draftspace by Johnj1995. I simply deleted the resulting redirect in accordance with the speedy deletion criterion cross-namespace redirect from mainspace. You will need to discuss the matter with the user who moved the page to understand their reasoning for doing so. plicit 13:04, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Open, but Unlisted AFD[edit]

Hello, An AFD that I created[1] and that you relisted[2] is still open. It appears that maybe when you removed it from the April 19th log, it was not added to the April 26th log? I'm not sure how to fix it. -- Mike 🗩 12:55, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ckfasdf: Hi, thanks for letting me know about this. I have added it to today's log page. plicit 13:04, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Creating Page Title, You deleted in AFD 2 years back.[edit]

Hi, entirely re-written an article at my Sandbox, since the title is protected for ADMIN only. I cant directly publish there, I would like you to move it from my Sandbox. Here’s the reason why this time its different I’ve not added anything thats not in the media, after reading last AFD what I’ve understand is the article previously deleted may have been completely promotional. I wrote unbiased neutral and title definitely passes BLP - GNG.

Also my friend at my IT company has asked me to write this so I’ll be definitely disclosing it at talk page and userpage after.

Here’s the AFD link:

Seeking Guidance on Republishing Sergey Smbatyan's Article on Wikipedia[edit]

Hey @Explicit,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude for your invaluable contributions to improving Wikipedia content. Your dedication to maintaining accuracy and reliability within the platform is truly commendable.

I am reaching out to discuss a matter regarding an article draft that was deleted last year under your supervision. The draft in question pertains to Sergey Smbatyan, and it was removed due to a lack of reliable sources at the time.

Since then, I worked to gather sufficient and verifiable sources covering Sergey Smbatyan's accomplishments and contributions. I believe that now I have a robust set of references that meet Wikipedia's standards for reliability.

Given your expertise in this area, I would greatly appreciate your guidance on the process of republishing the article. I want to ensure that I adhere to all Wikipedia guidelines and protocols to guarantee the article's compliance and accuracy.

Your insights and direction on this matter would be immensely valuable to me, and I am eager to collaborate with you to bring this article back to the platform in a manner that upholds Wikipedia's integrity.

Thank you once again for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

(talk page stalker) You did this at Liz's talk page too. Read my advice there. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:14, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And stop using AI. GPTzero (AI detector) scores at 100%, and Copyleaks (another AI detector) flags your message(s). Pasting the same AI generated message on admin talk pages really isn't going to help you. If you are not proficient in English, please edit the Wikipedia of your language. Do not use AI on Wikipedia. Thank you. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:19, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please userfy[edit]

Forgot to do this myself before the MFD expired, but could you please userfy Template:Standard offer info. I want to keep it in my userspace for future reference and improvement, if that's possible. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 02:14, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TheTechie: I usually userfy pages deleted at XFD upon request when there's room for improvement, but in this case, I'm not seeing what could possibly be done to do that. Can you please elaborate how restoring the content would not just serve as a way to bypass the TFD result? plicit 23:37, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you delete /Greenville_County_Republican_Party[edit]

I don’t believe that article in any way qualifies for deletion. If you believe otherwise, please explain. RJDAVISJR (talk) 15:15, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@RJDAVISJR: As the deletion log states, Greenville County Republican Party was deleted as a result of the deletion discussion that took place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Greenville County Republican Party. plicit 23:37, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks![edit]

I can't click the "thanks" button on page deletions, so I just want to say thanks for the mass-G5-ing of old Vvven articles you did earlier. They've been languishing in CCI for a year, and this saved a lot of time. And who knows, maybe when the next Vvven sock comes back, they'll take the hint?

I mention this mainly because you appear to be deleting pages directly from the category, so your opinions at the discussion would be appreciated. Primefac (talk) 06:35, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion Review Article Universidad Del Pacífico - Ecuador[edit]

Hello @Explicit

As per instruction on Deletion review

"Consider attempting to discuss the matter with the closer as this could resolve the matter more quickly. There could have been a mistake, miscommunication, or misunderstanding, and a full review may not be needed. Such discussion also gives the closer the opportunity to clarify the reasoning behind a decision"

I wish to propose that the article be temporarily undeleted and be relisted to the if possible within WikiProject Higher education in order to recieve the input from editor peers that are working on similar projects.

Best Regards,HarveyPrototype (talk) 22:39, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@HarveyPrototype: Hi, this AFD had already been relisted once and was open for two weeks. When it was open, it was listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Organizations, Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Schools, and Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Ecuador. None of the concerns brought up by the nominator or subsequent "delete" !votes were adequately addressed. I do not see a reason to open the discussion for an additional third week. plicit 12:10, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Explicit
Thank you for your feedback. I appreciate your attention to the process and your efforts in listing the AFD in relevant WikiProjects. However, I would like to highlight the ongoing discussion in the WikiProject Higher education, which is currently more active than the Wikiproject Ecuador. In this conversation, other editors have identified significant coverage of the university that was not brought to attention during the deletion discussion.
Given that WikiProject Higher Education is more active and has more experience with articles of this nature, I believe it would be beneficial to relist the article for deletion in this project. This would allow for a more thorough review by editors who are well-versed in the criteria for notability and sourcing for educational institutions.
I respectfully request that the article be relisted under the appropriate WikiProject to ensure a comprehensive and fair evaluation.
Thank you for considering this appeal. HarveyPrototype (talk) 18:00, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
