Hey there Closedmouth. No hurry, but next time you're on, could you provide me with a copy of User:ThoseStarsBurnLikeDiamonds/Vandalism to prevent the deletion from messing up my thanks page? Guess that'll teach me to subst ;). Cheers - Kingpin13 (talk) 12:12, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

WP:PROD
I draw your attention to the following part of
- If you do not agree that the article should be deleted without discussion you can do the following things:
- 1.Remove the dated prod tag from the article, noting this in the edit summary. Editors should explain why they disagree with the proposed deletion either in the edit summary, or on the article's talk page.
(bolded) This part was not adhered to, therefore the prod removal should be considered vandalism. As a consequence, it was not a contested prod. !!
- That's a suggestion, not a requirement. --Closedmouth (talk) 07:50, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

P.Mauriat deletion
Hi Closedmouth
Why was the P.Mauriat page deleted? Wizzardmk6 (talk) 06:52, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
- Because its deletion discussion ended in a decision of delete. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/P.Mauriat. I don't know why you're asking me, I had nothing to do with it. --Closedmouth (talk) 07:30, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
Stephen Collier (Musician) re-open
Hello their
Is it possible to re-open Stephen Collier (musician) please due to the fact he is a musician looking to make it big in his nation yet worldwide. The page was deleted and we are clueless to why as it was unfinished. Wikipedia is a perfect place for him to place his biography because of so many request into the background of Stephen’s life growing up which cannot be found anywhere else on the internet. Also it is a perfect place to advertise Stephen’s web pages and links to his music, tour dates and latest news
Cheers

Deletion of Physics page
Recently I created a Physics page, which was nominated for speedy deletion. On the deletion page I was allowed more time to wait for a new jounral of Phyics to come out. However, I may be wrong, but it seems you came along and deleted this page without warning. This is obviously very annoying for me because, as you may not realise, it takes a bloody long time to write out the equations. Can you offer some kind of reasoning for this, or did you simply try and massage your ego and delete a page on a respected scientist who, jusst because he is not American, is not getting any recognition? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anterior1 (talk • contribs) 21:08, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
- Okay, well, first of all, I didn't delete your article, so I don't know what you're doing here in the first place; and secondofly, I don't appreciate this accusation that I get some kind of ego boost out of deleting articles on clearly unimportant people. What a scurrilous, low-down dirty scumbag I would have to be for such a thing to be the truth, my goodness. And the implication that I'm American? Outrageous! I will have you know that I am highly offended by this. What a truly awful thing to say. --Closedmouth (talk) 14:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Ancient Roman Education Reflections
Hello Closedmouth! I have re-read the criteria and I understand the change over from speedy to proposed. I initially thought that since the article was purely about the individual (in essay form) that there is no way that can possibly be made into an article (basically what happened to him from primary school to university/college studies with no indication of actually anything happening). Thanks for keeping an eye out and making sure everything is in order!Calaka (talk) 08:23, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Deletion of 'Cherryland, Estonian Pop Group'
The criteria for this page's deletion makes no sense to me - there are thousands of pages in the Wiki that include information on lesser-known bands, places, and people, and yet they remain online without contest. Cherryland is a popular band in Estonia, and it's impossible how I'm supposed to prove that "the subject is important or significant" beyond that. The Wiki should not exist in some box to glorify both popular & unpopular entertainers from the US & the UK, but it's here to provide information on a global scale, and is highly lacking in foreign music. I want to change that, but not if my pages are going to be deleted under some flimsy rule. I encourage you to restore the page, although I'm sure all I'll get is some slap-in-the-face reply. Dreams (talk) 16:49, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
- I have to agree with Closedmouth here. I have reviewed a copy of the last revision of the article before it was deleted and there are no cited references or sources. I have researched Cheeryland and had a hard time finding reputable sources which could be used in an encyclopedia. I found some sites in Estonian (which, sadly, I don't speak) and so couldn't tell if they were reliable for promoting the notability of this band. I did find some digital downloads available but then I can find those for any number of non-notable bands around the world. Dreams, if you feel you can establish notability for this band, perhaps you could work on a page in your Sandbox and have someone review it before porting it to the main article space.

CHUNKLET, no CHUNKLET?
Dear Mystery person, You were good enough to make a Chunklet page - then you deleted it? 1. May I ask who you are and why you felt the urge to create such a page in the 1st place? 2. So, we may have "added" a few things to it? Did this action raise your ire? If yes, why so touchy? You seem to have a handle on our "approach" to things.
sincerely,

Image redirect deletion
A book, The Best American Science Writing 2007, has a link to two images printed in it, en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Phanerozoic-Carbon-Dioxide.png and en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:Phanerozoic-Climate-Change.png. Those images are really located at Commons as, File:Phanerozoic Carbon Dioxide.png and File:Phanerozoic Climate Change.png respectively. I couldn't find any policy, so I created the original names as a redirect so people with the book could find the correct title. Since you deleted the redirects, is there something else I should do instead? -- kenb215 talk 23:27, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Core Spirit
Can you please clarify why my article about Core Spirit (fashion brand) was deleted. And how come it was described as "unambiguous" advertising? There were nothing that might have suggested promotion (the contents was purely descriptive), as well as I provided references to all statements I had made. I find your decision unjustified to say the least Catwalk ghost (talk) 16:45, 3 July 2009 (UTC) Catwalk_Ghost 03 July 2009
- Well, I just re-read it and I stand by my decision to delete the page, it is rather blatantly advertorial. Also the references were mostly to sites affiliated with the brand, which suggests the subject isn't notable outside their own promotional department. --Closedmouth (talk) 17:17, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
