Even if the criteria is wrong, you can't remove a speedy deletion tag from an article you created. I've deleted the article because you made very little improvement from the last deleted version. Keep working on it. When you are ready to move it to the main space, move it instead of creating a new one. That will preserve relevant history. Use {{

The difference between the two is that Mr. Lander, in my opinion, established notability outside the political arena, (i.e. other than running for office).

Richard Anthony Jay
I saw your post on Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Ding_Day and I was interested in your comment that "it is not the responsibility of ONE individual to produce evidence of notability but the responsibility of the individual proposing the deletion to support the reasons of why NOT the article does not meet current Wikipedia standards of notability for inclusion".
I seem to be running into a brickwall at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Richard_Anthony_Jay despite having demonstrated notability under several criteria, in many references. Can you point me to an entry that bears out your above statement ? Or alternatively, give me your opinion on my page and how I can satisfy Wikipedia:Notability_(music) if you believe I haven't already done it ? Burningpetals (talk) 22:27, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
- Hey BEFORE. This policy, as shown by the clicking on the blue link, requires the nominating editor to investigate if there are creditable - verifiable - reliable - 3rd party sources that validate the pieces inclusion in Wikipediabefore nominating the article for deletion. Sorry to say, this overlooked many times. However, in this case the nominator did do a Good job. His responce is what I had a problem with.

- With regards to the specific topic of MySpace and other such sites are not and can not be considered as creditable - verifiable - reliable - 3rd party sources and are not considered for establishing notability.

- Thankyou for your reply. But why are the references I have cited not (easily) enough to satisfy Wikipedia:Notability_(music) multiple times ?:
- 'Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition'[1][2]
- 'Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician or ensemble itself and reliable'"MUSO". Impromptu Publishing. 2009: 56.
- 'Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a compilation album, etc'[5][6] Burningpetals (talk) 09:52, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Could you please answer the question asked at User talk:Graeme Bartlett#Declined G12 on Gmsh? MLauba (talk) 11:29, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- Short descriptions of free software are not copyrighted. All this article does is give a short description (2 sentences). How else would you describe it? Hope that helps. Thanks ShoesssS Talk 11:42, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- Hello MLauba - typically short descriptions of a product are not copyrighted. In that the thought process for copyrighting is to protect intellectual property. In that the description is not giving away a unique view or perception of the product just describing the basic use, that an average individual would also describe in the same manner, there is nothing to copyright. If you would feel more comfortable, I would be more than happy to reword. But as I mentioned above, in such a short description, the differences would be slight. Better explanation :-)? ShoesssS Talk 13:05, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
- The wording at present is certainly not generic enough to be ineligible for protection, and further, the sequence of edit summaries from both Graeme and yourself mentioning the GPL as reason to clear are, in my reading of the situation, incorrect in any case. If you believe you can reword, the text is not so generic as not being copyrightable, and I'd absolutely be more comfortable if you would do so. Cheers, MLauba (talk) 13:11, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Your courtesy is greatly appreciated. And I am so sorry that I did not hold onto the userfied Radio Tales articles longer. All 63 being nominated at the same time was overwhelming. MichaelQSchmidt (talk) 00:42, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
- Hey Michael not a problem, you did a nice job bringing it up to speed. I believe if you look through my history, you will find that we are actually reading from the same book. Just different pages from time to time. Likewise, I am part of the ARS project. In fact, my approach to saving articles is very similar to yours. First look for sourcess - source the piece, rewrite if necessary - then debate like hell :-). Regarding the Radio Tales, no big deal, I'll just start from stract and see what I can do. In the mean time, take care. ShoesssS Talk 02:05, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
- Hello, Shoessss. You have new messages at MichaelQSchmidt's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.- Good Luck with Radio Tales (Time Machine). All I can suggest is to source the ever-lovin' crap out of 'em, since you'll be fighting the bias against recreating a deleted page. Make 'em shine and the deleting admin will have to agree that your version is both unique and better. And actually, not having the originals in front of you, your individual way of approaching the article may well reap positive benefits. Let him know that from perusing the AfD, you are aware that many of the 63 were not unique, and that your new offering is the same only in title... not in content. Best always, MichaelQSchmidt (talk) 02:56, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

Oi! : )
I had just written a comment agreeing with your comment about my comment and then you went and deleted it from the AfD. I can take some robust criticism. This is what I wrote: "::: Comment - fair summary, although perhaps it would better to say that "I don't have the time to go and find reliable sources for an author who wrote 20 years ago." This takes extensive time and effort which to my mind is not worth it. I suppose I see that this person has written some 15 books about an area of early Australian history and thus is notable and over time more interested people than me will improve the article. I know this doesn't fit with how we do things around here but it seems more valuable to us to have this entry than to delete it. I am delighted that Google is providing you the sources you require. I find as someone who writes about early Australian history that it is rather poor in this area. When it has stuff it's very exciting but more often than not I am left seeking more information. Google is great but it ain't God...yet!
Please don't hang your head in shame. Tis good to have some people trying to keep the quality of WP high. I appreciate the work you are doing. Cheers, Gillyweed (talk) 23:17, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Zoids
Do you really need me to list all of them for deletion? Given the current trend, it is quite obvious what will happen with the rest. TTN (talk) 00:19, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

- Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zoids - the OER, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NJR Zoids, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Neo-Blox, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zoids Remodelling Sets, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Unreleased Zoids all ended in delete. The rest have been redirected and the only one to have been closed "merge" is that recent one. AfDs closed as "merge" don't actually have to be merged, just so you know. It'll be the same for the rest of them. TTN (talk) 00:39, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

- No - I'm OK with the 14:31, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

As for the RFA at this point, I think it's just going to be repetitive opposes as people pile on top of the people before them. And from what I've been told by past editors, killing it now looks better than keeping it and prolonging the "agony".

I just got in the habit of doing it to either emphasis a particular point, versus bolding, and like all habits, tough to break. I did take that particular comment to heart, and can understand the editors point. See that, three sentences in a row without blue linking :-). ShoesssS Talk 02:27, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- Well, you could turn it into a good habit if you would link helpful things instead of just repetitive things. In the large paragraph above you linked RFA twice, even though we all know what RFA stands for. Why not link here and here instead, especially given that your name is hard to remember (especially given that names are case sensitive)? -- Soap Talk/Contributions 13:51, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Style and perception
I think your style has rubbed some editors the wrong way. If you're interested in trying again for adminship in the future I would suggest avoiding the use of bolding (or at least using it very selectively), refraining from ALL CAPS, and resisting sarcasm and personal expressions of your personality and sense of humor. Otherwise, you can be yourself and join the ranks of the elite non-admin paramilitary cabal that actually runs this site ;). But seriously, you do seem to be getting some good feedback that you'd do well to consider. I hope you won't be discouraged and I thank you for your contributions to the encyclopedia building effort.

Regarding some of the remarks, I did take a few to heart. Especially those concerning the bolding and blue linking. I can understand how they may be perceived, though the intention on my part was not meant that way. Those comments I do appreciate.

AfD Compromise
Hey, having looked at the comments on the AfD, I've proposed a compromise...no idea if I can actually do it, but I followed WP:IAR and just went ahead and did it anyways. Would love to hear your feedback. Frmatt (talk) 21:34, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
- Reply Hey Original Research. My feelings and personal opinion about Wikipedia is that my opinion is based on the premise that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. My understanding of an encyclopedia is a Reference work that contains information on all branches of knowledge or that it treats a particular branch of knowledge comprehensively. It is self-contained and explains subjects in greater detail than a dictionary with references and citations to other works that support the conclusion. With regards to this particular piece, I find that we have an individual, who has done a great job in researching - writing and referencing a piece but has come to their own conclusion. The article as it now stands could, (and maybe should be submitted to a journal for publication). However, Wikipedia is not a Journal - Scholarly peer review - or a publisher of Original material. We are a encyclopedia that forwards the findings of others, after it has been vented by 3rd party - verifiable - creditable and independent sources, and not a publication house for great, but unproven, thesis. Thanks. ShoesssS Talk23:22, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

Hews in Hollywood
Do you think that ALL discussion that is undernead the "compromise" heading should be moved to the article talk page? Isn't that where discussion meant to improve articles belongs, on the article talk page? Slrubenstein | Talk 12:48, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- That sounds great. In fact, I was going to post a response to Noleander’s comments to address my concerns. Thanks. ShoesssS Talk 13:37, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- I think the thing to do is to find an uninvolved administrator, because all discussion about improving the articl itself should be removed from the RfD page to the article talk page. I am pretty involved and cannot act in a neutral way. Slrubenstein | Talk 13:47, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- Typically I would go to DGG in discussions similar to this. However, I noticed that he has commented on the piece, Keep by the way, so that strikes him. Another great administrator would be Uncle G. However, be prepared for his style. At times he does come off abrasive, but I have always found his advice informative and balanced, though biting. To me that is no big deal, but especially neophyte editors may take offense. One administrator who has dealt with this topic and I respect for their balanced approach to articles that even have a whiff of racisms is AniMate. If you like, I can drop a note on his talk page to see if he has the time to participate. Hope that helps. ShoesssS Talk 14:13, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- I trust your judgment on this, another possibility would be User:Andrew c - good judgment and experienced. But I leave it to you. Slrubenstein | Talk 12:02, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- Not a problem. I'll leave a note on AniMate's page and also talk with DGG, who will most likely monitor the page anyway as he has participated in the discussions. He is excellent in making sure it remains unbiased. In the mean time take care, I’ll be back in a week (looking forward to a cruise we have planned for the next 10 days – and sorry, I am not spending the outrageous fees they charge for internet connections on the ships). Happy editing. ShoesssS Talk 12:29, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- I trust your judgment on this, another possibility would be User:Andrew c - good judgment and experienced. But I leave it to you. Slrubenstein | Talk 12:02, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
- Typically I would go to DGG in discussions similar to this. However, I noticed that he has commented on the piece, Keep by the way, so that strikes him. Another great administrator would be Uncle G. However, be prepared for his style. At times he does come off abrasive, but I have always found his advice informative and balanced, though biting. To me that is no big deal, but especially neophyte editors may take offense. One administrator who has dealt with this topic and I respect for their balanced approach to articles that even have a whiff of racisms is AniMate. If you like, I can drop a note on his talk page to see if he has the time to participate. Hope that helps. ShoesssS Talk 14:13, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- I think the thing to do is to find an uninvolved administrator, because all discussion about improving the articl itself should be removed from the RfD page to the article talk page. I am pretty involved and cannot act in a neutral way. Slrubenstein | Talk 13:47, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
- That sounds great. In fact, I was going to post a response to Noleander’s comments to address my concerns. Thanks. ShoesssS Talk 13:37, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
Wording suggestion
Shoesssss: I saw you use the word "venting" ... I think maybe you meant "vetting"? I know I certainly make lots of spelling mistakes, and Id like to think the other people would point them out :-)

Another look
I've now reflected enough in the article itself that I believe it will be clear to all that the book is notable. See

Hi ! I have rewritten the article AfD'd last spring, and am working with the administrator to repost. Could you review and offer suggestions? It is HERE. --Cmagha (talk) 11:55, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
- Not entirely accurate as I just G4ed the article after it was restored to mainspace as another editor raised significant concerns about the handling of the sources and alleged that they do not say what Cmagha claims. Spartaz Humbug!13:45, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLP kept at AfD from your !vote
Last December, your keep !vote was one of the main reason that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/William "Bill" Douglass survived AfD. 11 months on, it is still unreferenced to independent reliable sources. Can you please provide suitable references to it, or if your feelings on BLP notability have changed at all, renominate it for deletion or merge it as you suggested. Thanks.
