Mr. Siegel,
You deleted the Escoffee page. However, Escoffee is a legitimate coffee company from Ecuador. You do have pages on other (large) companies. So why not this one. The description was factual, stating when it was founded, what its activities are and so on. I don't understand why this company page was deleted.
Sincerely, Jeromekruft 16:25, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
Before I wrote my previous message I had just had a look at the Ward Churchill main article for the first time in a week or so. It too is very biased. I decided that since 5 days had gone by, Now might be a good time to get the ball rolling on the issues article. And by that I mean seeing to it that those who believe thy are capable of being neutral are informed of Churchills side of things. If every source that backs Churchills side of things is disallowed under one pretext or the other then I will have a better idea of how to proceed. Albion moonlight 23:07, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
If Ward Churchill's blog claims he said this or that it is fair to claim that he did in fact say it. Such evidence can and should be used. Not as facts but as a representations of what he had to say. By quoting or paraphrasing him directly from his website or other sources we can at least make the claim that we made an honest attempt at being neutral . Otherwise we can't. It is really quite that simple. There are editor who have denied him even that much. Albion moonlight 05:38, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
I'd love for you to take a look at it. I've been working on it for several hours, and while I'm not finished, I'm over halfway there, and would love input. Do you have email enabled? I'd rather not post the link here, if you understand, simply because it is not officially published, and I've seen the havoc caused by the TTR page. :) Ariel♥Gold 17:15, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
I'm not trying to be obtuse, but is what you're saying in essence that if we cannot tell whether an award is utterly trivial then that uncertainty becomes sufficient assertion of notability to not apply A7? So if an assumption needs to be made, or discretion employed, A7 doesn't apply because the assertion of notability has been made? Carlossuarez46 18:34, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
Hey, i was wondering if this page could be unlocked so that I can create an article. I have several sources, its not going to be biographical, but will make references to Tay Zonday as a internet meme and as a songwriter, including links to artciles written about him on the internet. The page will be based upon pages for other memes such as Star Wars Kid and Chuck Norris. --Robnubis 13:45, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
Following your recent participation in Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2007 July 30#Allegations of American apartheid, you may be interested to know that a related article, Allegations of Chinese apartheid, is currently being discussed on AfD.

Hello! Looking over the history of Wikipedia:Template the regulars, I see that all edits other than by its author were (1) typo fixes, (2) adding a merge template, or (3) quickly reverted. The first revision of the page was identical to the version the author requested deletion on (except for one typo fix and one merge template). Hence I've speedied it as author request. Yours, >Radiant< 13:27, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
Your DRV comments say that the speedy deletion serves no point because you will simply create a new version of this essay. I agree with that assessment and I did not mean to extent my comments to any future incarnation of the essay. I don't, however, agree that the G7 deletion was unfounded. The vast majority of the essay was written by Giggy at the time of the initial request. I also don't think that the DTTR MfD concluded that there is a consensus to keep both articles, only an MfD on the merits of TTR itself would be helpful in defining consensus. I hope you don't mind this response here instead of the DRV. Cheers, ˉˉanetode╦╩ 16:44, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
Just thought I'd let you know that Carcharoth has taken a look, and offered impressions on the talk page. I'm still waiting to hear back from DGG if he has a better way to organize the TOC, but I did add the section about children we spoke about, and thought you could take a look at that. Also, since I'm not really up to speed on who would be good "polar opposites" to invite to comment, I thought maybe you could give some names of those who may be on the very ends of the issue, to take a look and voice their opinions. Hope you had a good weekend, DES! Ariel♥Gold 00:50, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
Fair enough, but if the author doesn't come up with something more in the next day or two, I'll prod it. Realkyhick 21:47, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
We got an OTRS complaint on this one; reviewing the article, and the source, though a lot of it has been moderately adjusted or rewritten, I think we're still clearly in violation. If the Marvel Appendix authors complained with a takedown...
I'm going to delete this under the listed copyvio criteria. If you want to do a complete rewrite of the copyvio sections and restore it with those changes, feel free to do so, but please be careful. Thanks. Georgewilliamherbert 08:12, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for your comments. It would appear that significant content was added to the page after I had tagged it for Speedy Deletion. I certainly do not consider it a candidate for Speedy Deletion now. Karl2620 11:06, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
Hi, you're welcome for the draft I made of Songs from Les Misérables. It took longer than I first expected to prepare it, so I'm glad the work wasn't wasted. I did, of course, intend to influence the outcome of the AfD by preparing something that looked worth keeping.
I've only just realised that you actually moved it from my sandbox. It wasn't the first thing I had drafted in that sandbox, so the article now has a rather strange page history! I don't suppose it happens very often, but you might want to copy & paste if a user does something similar again! Best wishes, Fayenatic london (talk) 18:08, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

You do realize that following your criteria means that articles about half the videos on YouTube will have to be prodded (and a significant number taken to afd) instead of speedily deleted, right? To me, something that only appears on YouTube qualifies as web content. --NeilN 05:22, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
I was looking to see if someone had created a "I am going to deny your request to speedy delete X" template because it comes up often enough. And I see that you have ((Template:Speedy-Warn)). I was wondering if you'd mind if I add at the end: "You are, of course, free to add a ((prod)) notice or nominate the article for deletion at WP:AFD." Just let me know, since it's basically your template I won't be bold. :-) Carlossuarez46 21:52, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
(moving from my talk page to yours since you did not reply)
It is generally considered impolite to request users to expose their real-life identities, or to confirm or deny guesses at such identities. Edits such as this in which you imply that confirmation of identity is required for an edit to stand clearly violate policy. The test of an edit is the contents, not the editor. WP:COI (a guideline, not a policy) exists because many people can not edit on subjects in which they are involved with sufficient neutrality. But if a particular edit is in fact neutral, it stands no matter who made it, and if it in fact fails WP:NPOV it should be removed no matter who made it. Demanding to know an editor's identity as a condition of not reverting an edit is simply unacceptable. Please don't do this again. DES (talk) 14:55, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

I wanted to contact you because I remembered how you helped me with kindness against that former admin who was abusing the deletion formula. I think I need your help and support. I got an e mail from an editor asking me to look at the List_of_gay_porn_stars section. These articles are riddled with POV, advertisement and spam. I tried to do a simple prod tag but oh my did I get the thrashing of my life! One told me that I would never succeed in getting the aricles removed under WP:PORNBIO and they were right. All they have to do is supply an award! These subjects are the actual editors of their pages. So, when an editor goes in to try and edit the articles, they jump on them and remove any edits they do not like. The way the WP:PORNBIO is written, all these people have to do is to win an award or be able to write something about themselves in a web page and it can be entered into WP. When you click on the links for these pages, they take you to websites that you either have to agree to enter in on adult content or it takes you to their porno stores. This is a very effective way for them to advertise their webpages and escort services. The only way to get around these people is to put them up for AfD. I need some help here. Do you think you would like to join forces with me to rid WP os some of this crap? Let me know. I certainly could use the support and help. I think we are going to have to approach WP to see if we can rewrite the rules for these porno articles. Junebug52 18:10, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Another editor has added the ((prod))
template to the article Patrick Combs, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the ((prod))
template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 04:00, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

I added a section to Dawn Wells that reads as follows:
The section is properly referenced and relevant. Several people including War, FCYTravis, and Cleo123, do not want this included because it is not seen as "positive". This is a POV view.
I request that you ask these people to cease reverting this section which is relevant and factual. It is based on news accounts and court records. Proxy User (talk) 02:53, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

I changed the TTR essay on your userspace to restore some info that you added, and that got reverted by an user, see the reversion of your addition, and my addition of the info.
I explain myself, I saw your complain on Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Giggy about being reverted, and then I noticed that you had been reverted by the sock of a banned user, and that the information was actually quite good and was according to my experience, so I re-added the information, after making a few changes and discarding a paragraph about strawman arguments. --Enric Naval (talk) 02:32, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, it looks like ((Flag-article)) and ((Flag-article)) are being embraced and used, as witness the populating of Category:Flagged articles and Category:Flagged editors by Some Other Editors. :-)

re [4] - it is a straight copy of a section of yesterday's lead DYK article, which is not in line with summary style at all. WP:SPLIT has not been followed, and the article is completely pointless. The troll-like creator has a habit of creating articles that are unacknowledged copies or patchworks of other articles, or copyvios. See his talk page, contributions, & the current Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Variation on a theme. "Sincere" or not, this behaviour is not helpful to the encyclopedia, & I urge you to reconsider your edit. Johnbod (talk) 18:09, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
I don't think I'll be retagging it.

Mr. Siegel,
It looks to me that you have deleted UAS Lab. Your statement says, it is meant for promotional activities. I have several patients who browse for UAS Labs wiki page and don't find one. As this company's DDS probiotics are widely accepted by public, I got interested to create an article on them. It is informative for public to publish some relevant info related to their DDS strain. Although their literatures are little promotional those are the only available sources that I found so far. This company is notable with many newspapers, magazines, news mmedia, Books etc. Kindly understand my request. I have asked in public to incorporate their thoughts so some sections can be improved. Please don't delete this article.

Dear Mr. Siegel,
Thanks for the help. I appreciate you for improving the section and fixing the references. Now it looks better. I need some additinal editorial helps. I made a box with the company logo and address on it. But the logo doesn't appear. I don't know why? Please advise? Thanks in advance.
Gutflora(Gutflora (talk) 22:41, 22 December 2009 (UTC))
Hi Des,
Thanks for the help. I moved the page to UAS Laboratories. I can later edit the sections/add pages to the article. The logo should be OK now without any deletion. Thanks again! (Gutflora (talk) 22:06, 28 December 2009 (UTC))
Des,
I am surprised to see that the article UAS Laboratories is getting a speedy deletion warning again. I followed the procedures and reviewed with you, with the hope that it won't be deleted. There are many reasons why I oppose the deletion. These are:
(1) The company is notable for its DDS-1 L. acidophilus probiotic strain. It holds a patent and trademark for being the first commercial manufacturer of DDS-1 L. acidophilus. Please see the United States Patent (UAS Lab) No. 3,689,640 and United States Trademark Office Reg. No. 1,685,959. I had a hard time in posting a pdf page of this trademark to the article. Much research has been done on L. acidophilus DDS-1 so far. It has been proved in last 30 years that this particular probiotic strain has many health benefits against IBS, chrohn's disease, candida, Indigestion, diarrhea and others. Therefore, public wants to know what this strain is?, how it was discovered?, why it was manufactured?, what is it's health benefits? and who is UAS Laboratories?
(2)The article is in initial stage. The next section would be how the idea to manufacture DDS-1 strain came to mind? - The history and development. Please note that I am not a technical expert in posting articles to wikipedia. Reviewing with the administrator and fixing things will take reasonable amount of time, not just one week. Therefore, please allow us fair amount of time to improve this article.
(3) I agree that it needs references from third party sources. I do have plenty of references from the primary sources for example published books, journals by S. K. Dash ( the founder of the company). Per your suggestion, that's marginal not notable. I might need little more time in collecting those. Finally, deletion of an article takes only a minute, but creation takes a lot of time. For people like me, who have less knowledge on wikipedia, it shocks when I struggle a lot to ceate an article and finally it is deleted.
I would appreciate if you would be kind enough and remove the deletion notice from the main page of the article. Thanks (Gutflora (talk) 20:25, 30 December 2009 (UTC))
Des,
I am extremely thankful for your action! I honor Wikipedia and it's editing policies. I am a neutral person creating this article for public. I have no relation with UAS Laboratories. (Gutflora (talk) 21:03, 5 January 2010 (UTC))

As an FYI - I did not tag the Poland Central School as an A7 because I felt it was a non-notable school. If you go back and look, the A7 tag was for db-web -- the original article was called Www.polandcs.org and I was judging that version since it focused (barely) on the school's web site and not the school. Thanks. Warrah (talk) 21:03, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:UAS_Laboratories_Logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 08:21, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

Thank for intervention. I am a beginner and possibly the only active Wikipedian alumnus of the Public Boarding School, RKC referred to in link title above. Peding, creation of article about notable alumni, some deceased, attempts are being made through facility as the following link to educate and possibly entice some of the alumni to become Wikipedian in the process of listing and creating related articles and by extension possibly venture into unrelated territory; your continuing assistance may be required; most of upadtes to the school page was by me in last year. Related links are listed in context:
Can a link to ( List of ) Alumni, Principals and Teachers of The Rajkumar College,Rajkot- RKCians be accessed independently- currently it is in redirect to Main page Rajkumar College, Rajkot; Is it appropriate to put a link ( ( List of ) Alumni, Principals and Teachers of The Rajkumar College,Rajkot- RKCians ) for the list page on the school main page at Rajkumar College, Rajkot?
I know how to do above, but all the edits recently were done by an administrator(s) for some purpose and seeking your assistance would be more prudent. Once above can be established either by inserting list page link on main page or changing redirect to at least disambiguation with mention of both page links as above might help.

- Forbearance Needed; Alumni Listed are Notables; Besides some In Memoriam, others likely to be Wikipedians promoting Wikipedia culture in Schools
- With support from thoughtsLogical, page development for individual notable alumni, many in notable positions in their fields, is on-going and how to start a page is also demonstrated in a link previously on this page ( since de-linked ) to " my space page ". After judging appropriateness to further the cause for progressive creation of pages of notables, if a link ( in history of this page ) can be re-established to my user space, progress for this School page will be significant. This I write, whereas a full page previously written somwhere and transported is welcome, but page written partially is promptly deleted, unless it is done under shield of user space feature and then transported. This feature likely to be used most by our Alumni. Some parts of above were already mentioned, to further this worthy cause, under show and hide feature ( green bar ) to decrease clutter on page.
At the same time, Alumni are to use only Other Alumni category, where notability will be judged and recategorized to appropriate category after a page full of data are available to compile a page possibly under the user space feature which will be detailed in Alumni E -mail circuit; boldness in Wikipedia is espoused and direct entry and edits encouraged, but Alumni E-mail circuit is available where details of notable nominations and information is welcome and encouraged. Become a Wikipedian and promote Wikipdeia in schools starting with your Alma mater.
Comment Note many of the "notable alumni" are simply bluelinks because they are piped to a city or name. For instance, Tedder of Portland. tedder (talk) 21:37, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

I'm having trouble understanding why this article was undeleted beyond your comment of "a claim of significance". While it may have been edited to no longer be a direct copy of the artist's official bio, it's barely rephrased and still uncomfortably close to copy written by her agent. At best it's autobiographical spam, at worst it's still a copyvio. While I dont doubt that this person may meet WP:BIO, it seems the best course of action is to delete this article as it stands today and write a new one that meets wikipedia guidelines.--RadioFan (talk) 02:19, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
So what happens if someone creates an account named Bdfjhkgi? Eagles 24/7 (C) 19:44, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
User:Eagles 247 referred me to you when I wanted the page to be deleted. I accidentally created the page when I mistyped my username. When it said that there was no page under that name, I mad the biggest mistake I have ever made on Wikipedia. I made User:Bdfjhkgi redirect to my user page. Can I delete it if I'm not an administrator. If I can, could you explain how on my talk page? Thank you. Bdfjhkgj (talk) 21:33, 31 December 2009 (UTC):-)

Hi and Happy New year !! This is my first time on Wikipedia and I am very disappointed to see the results ... in It Girls Documentary there were many many many writeups !! I don't really understand why you have chosen the two most negative things ever written and selected them to be indicative of the film . It Girls is a very positive documentary and the two items you selected out of hundreds were written in a very meanspirited way , Shouldn't Wikipedia be balanced and thoughtful. It Girls has been around since 2002 and never been posted on Wikipedia ... I don't understand the complete negativity of your additions or why you would insist on portraying a documentary that you have likely not seen with such an instantly negative choice ?? Not a great first experience here ... If you want to post writeups and interviews you might want to take the time and read all the writeups and either post them all or none or a few that are truly and generally representative of a film that took many years to create ... Thanks for your time ... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pinkyellow (talk • contribs) 03:29, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your offer!! Actually It Girls was shown on television seven years ago and there were not really reviews as it was a tv event on cable and not a film for the movie theatres ... there were mostly interviews, gossip, and thoughts. The chosen writeups you have are not by reviewers but by gossip columnists ( Roger Friedman was an entertaiment Gossip columnist at Fox online ) and the NY Times writer is also a style/fashion writer not a film reviewer and this is a onetime article that appeared in the fashion section because her sister was considered an "it girl" ... there were many thoughts in all directions at that time because although the film was shot before Sept 11 it was released just after and the people's consciousness at that time was heightened ... most articles were light and funny and gossipy about It Girls ... those two chosen just happen to be quite meanspirited and not indicative of that moment or spirit of the film and therefore show a light that didn't exist then ...The CNN transcript is the complete interview ... Also I believe that there were also many articles in print and not on the internet ... Thanks so much!!
Also thanks again but the new selections are not reviews but also articles that appeared in the gossip column of WWD ... Is gossip really a critical review of the film ?? It Girls was a sweet light movie for television and was never seriously reviewed so I have a problem with the heading Critical Response ... Maybe if you want to call it gossip response ?? Also there were several thoughtful interviews done ... why not post those ?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pinkyellow (talk • contribs) 16:54, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
Also this was sent to the other reviewer but I never really got a satisfactory response !! Hi and Happy New Year !! This is my first time on Wikipedia and I'm just wondering why ?? and for what reason ?? your comment " 03:39, 9 January 2010 ArglebargleIV (talk | contribs) (1,747 bytes) (removing peacock terms) " was tweeted onto the internet to appear immediately after a search ?? Is this normal and common for each wikipedia correction or opinions to be tweeted and to stay on the internet forever ?? If that is true than it seems like a very invasive process ... If this is not true than I'm hoping that you can remove this tweet as it is an unfair item to come up at the top of any internet search !!! Thanks !!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pinkyellow (talk • contribs) Can that tweet be removed ... Seems like an invasion of privacy !!! Thanks so much !!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pinkyellow (talk • contribs) 17:27, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
Regarding your deletion of The Tides Of Time. I have enough proof for you with regards to reviews, etc. Can you help me please? I have released an album. The article (posted by me under 'Magiko'). You seem to question my "notability": I have published articles, given concerts, been on radio and television worldwide and have now released a CD with my own music as well. You will also find my name in the 'International Who's Who of Music' (Classical). If that is not "notable" enough I don't understand Wikipedia rules anymore. In any case, I am not on any type of "ego" or "vanity"trip here. But many people always ask me why I am not on Wikipedia. I usually respond because I am not "notable" enough - something that usually causes some amusement. I truly hope someone would like to take on my case and help me solve this predicament. I have seen people included in Wikipedia that are truly irrelevant. Hence, it is really difficult to understand why you are banning my biography and work from it. In any case, I would really appreciate someone independent and impartial to help me. I am here attaching some files as proof. I hope this will help to reinstall my original entry.
Thank you. Magiko (talk) 19:49, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

A quick question, please: how do I send you (and where to?) the files you need to approve specific quotes in my article? (such as publications ISBN numbers, photocopies of articles, links to relevant websites, etc.)? Do I include them in the article itself for everyone to see or shall I send them to you for approval first? Magiko (talk) 09:24, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi. You removed the speedy tag from this article, but I have nonetheless speedied it WP:CSD#G3 as a blatant hoax. I wouldn't do that unless the evidence was very solid, but to explain why I think it is, here is the evidence I started to gather for an AfD:

Hi, there is a discussion about converting the subject article into a redirect to the incident page. You have been a prominent editor on the article and I would like to solicit your input.--Jarhed (talk) 01:22, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
DESiegel, I do not agree that the statements you quoted are assertions of significance. First, the article text does not indicate the sport this person plays. Second, after looking at the infobox and seeing that this person is a camogie player, a sport played almost exclusively in Ireland, I feel it is absurd to consider any current individual player to be significant from a worldwide standpoint. Third, the article was one of several created in a short period of time by the same author User:Gearoid69, about various current camogie players, many of which were tagged for speedy deletion, and not just by me. While I AGF, it struck me a spam campaign. For the record, I left a message at gearoid69's talk page suggesting that they focus their efforts differently, such as consolidating information from the articles they had added into articles about camogie teams, tournaments, etc, and to expand the camogie article itself.

Just noticed you'd returned. You probably don't remember me, but you're the first admin I really dealt with here, in a contretemps over some articles about municipal elections (my username at the time was Sarcasticidealist); you made a good impression, though we were on opposite sides. Anyway, I'm an arbitrator now, and I just wanted to thank you for not chasing me away. Steve Smith (talk) 23:05, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Please note that, although Rdm2376 may have been unseemingly precipitous in deleting all those BLP articles on the grounds that they were unsourced, that is not the only reason that such articles are deleted.
I restored a bunch of them and set out to provide proper sources myself.
For one of them, I realized it was unverifiable. I could find no evidence that it was real. There was nothing to support any of the assertions made therein. Google has many hits for the name of the author provided, but it seems to be a common phrase: there's a lot of social networking stuff, and some wikimirrors... but nothing else that I could find. That's why I deleted it. Unverifiable. DS (talk) 16:49, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
