AfD nomination of DarkGDK.Net
editI have nominated DarkGDK.Net, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/DarkGDK.Net. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Flagging DarkGDK.Net for further review
editHello, Glaivier … I recently encountered the article about DarkGDK.Net and in my opinion, it either lacks sufficient Attribution that it satisfies the Notability criteria for Organizations and companies, or it may violate the Conflict of interest guideline, or perhaps it violates a copyright.
I am considering tagging DarkGDK.Net (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for deletion according to the Deletion policy … I do not have time to examine the article in depth at the moment, and it may improve over time, in which case this warning was premature.
I have created this initial entry on your Talk page because you are either the original author of the article, or else a recent contributor to it; I will leave more detailed information regarding my specific concerns about the article on its Discussion page … please respond either there or on this Talk page, instead of on my Talk page, in order to avoid fragmenting the conversation.
Be sure to read Ownership of articles, and remember that other editors may not share your opinion about the notability of the article's subject.
I do not mean to imply that your contribution is unappreciated … perhaps you should read Your first article … and remember, there was a time when I knew less about how Wikipedia works than you know right now. —Triwbe (talk) 15:01, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

editHello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, DarkGDK.Net. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you.

Speedy deletion of DarkGDK.Net
editA tag has been placed on DarkGDK.Net, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Triwbe (talk) 14:19, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
DarkGDK.NET
editQuote: You marked my page for deletion, apparently missing the distinction between the DarkBASIC page and the DarkGDK.NET product, which has different target environments, users, languages, etc. It has now been deleted. I may end up recreating this on another site, but I am not willing to mess about trying to gather source code, summaries, tutorial info etc. if idiots with no concept about the purpose are going to mark it for deletion within a day, before anyone else gets a chance to expand it. Wikipedia is obviously at the mercy of some draconic rules that prohibit any attempt to build a useful centre point for an under-represented platform, and so I will have to forge stronger links with other wiki sources and forums. The content I had added does not entirely exist anywhere else online, and so was supposed to be useful, as I'd gathered it together from bits of related but distinct content and had tried to spare others from having to translate such content between platforms. It will now have to exist elsewhere, preferably with copyright notice that prohibit it's re-use on wikipedia. Why? I can't ask that enough? You obviously had no concept of the differences, but didn't check further as you'd have found out that they are significant enough to warrant respresentation here. Shame on you well-meaning idiots for removing a useful resource!—Preceding unsigned comment added by Glaivier (talk • contribs) 14:06, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Gladivier, I marked your page as a possible article for deletion because at the time it was simply a copy of DarkBASIC which was not required. It turns out through the AfD discussion you had modified it and these breached the guidelines of wikipedia. So it was up for a debate whether to delete or not. You had over one week in which to post your objections. The final decision by five wikipedians (including myself) was to remove the article. Any further discussion on this article should be in its talk page. •xytram•talkpics 14:39, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

editThis is your only warning; if you add defamatory content to Wikipedia again, as you did at Wish (company), you may be blocked from editing without further notice. GirthSummit (blether) 12:42, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
