Removed PROD
editI have removed the PROD at Andrej Hanták. Your rationale was "fails WP:NFOOTY, most likely", but NFOOTY says that players who have played in a fully professional league are presumed notable, and there is evidence that this is true for the player in question. Please check that an article really does fail NFOOTY before nominating in such a way in the future. Thanks, C679 04:45, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
- From my basic looking around, I do not see that the team he is playing for is in a WP:FPL. Is this correct or incorrect? Uberaccount (talk) 21:13, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
- How basic do you want to be, the first link says he played 9 games in the Corgoň Liga 2011/2012, which is on the FPL list under its country, Slovakia. Thanks, C679 04:56, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
Hi, Uberaccount. Again, this is an existing populated place. Please, do a quick Google search before tagging pages for deletion. Peter aka --Shirt58 (talk) 07:03, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
I would be grateful if you could provide a diff to the edit which you are [1] referring to? --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 10:57, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
I would like to let you know that in the future, tag a page for G7 instead of A3 if the author blanks it. Thanks! Command and Conquer Expert! speak to me...review me... 04:15, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
I think this meets WP:GNG. Bearian (talk) 18:53, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
For Deletion: Caia Mei
Absolutely no idea what I am doing here, but my page is set to be deleted, yet everything is completely true. Please advise, thanks!
(Englishyankee (talk) 22:09, 2 May 2013 (UTC))
- I am claiming that your statements are untrue (though the article was deleted yesterday as a blatant hoax) but that it is wildly unreferenced and makes profound claims - a bad combination. Uberaccount (talk) 22:13, 2 May 2013 (UTC) (P.S. Please use the new section button to leave a message on my talk page)
Caia Mei
editI can assure you that everything is completely true!! What can I do to prove it? I posted videos, I have adoption documents, I have a million photos but can't seem to find a way to upload any. It is a little insulting to be told that it's a blatant hoax, I am her mother and I assure you it's not!!

Caia Mei
editWould you mind checking now? I added some things including a book I wrote which also contains my photo and Caia's. It was dedicated to her. I also included a link to Click Models and she is on the 2nd page of kids (1st child at top) as well as to CESD (although she is not on their website but is represented by them).
I added a link to Robert Rodriguez's project as well.
She will be on IMDb as soon as the film has finished production, it is currently finishing filming. I can add a link to the director's IMDb page though???
"unreferenced" usually isn't reason enough to propose deletion
editThe Wikipedia:DEL#REASON policy lists several reasons to delete articles. You may note reason 7 - "Articles for which thorough attempts to find reliable sources to verify them have failed" - is not free license to propose deletion of unreferenced articles. It's actually a prompt for someone to spend 30 seconds to type the article name in a search engine. To that effect, I removed your proposed deletion of mắm nêm as typing it into Google immediately gives me upward of 200,000 hits. In the future, please instead add Template:Unreferenced to the top of unreferenced articles. Teply (talk) 03:30, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
Caia Mei
editI am completely baffled and overwhelmed trying to figure out how to contact someone regarding my page. There are so many links and pages that I can't seem to fathom it. I was told that I needed to edit my page and provide verifiable proof. I was in the middle of editing and had a bunch of other proof to add (not external links) when it was deleted again! I was told I had until May 9th, so it seems rather unfair. I can't understand how providing proof of articles she has been in is not good enough???? Someone please respond because it's really frustrating when I've spent so much time trying to make it verifiable and wasn't finished. Englishyankee (talk) 17:11, 3 May 2013 (UTC)
Caia Mei
editThanks for message. It would have been better to prod it specifically as an unsourced blp, since this is a category where deletion is automatic if no sources are forthcoming. I speedy deleted it as advertising; the whole point of speedy deletion is that clear breaches of certain policies, including copyright and spam, can be dealt with without consultation. Virtually every line of this article was promotional in content and tone, and there were dubious links to her agent and modelling agency rather than proper references.
The article would need a complete rewrite to be acceptable, even if she meets the notability criteria. I had another look at the content following your message, and I am content that it met the G11 speedy deletion criteria

Reliable source for Mariano Garau
editHello, I got information about Mariano Garau from the "Enciclopedia della musica sarda", i.e., "Encyclopedia of Sardinian music", a multimedia publication in 16 volumes (see OPAC entry here, in Italian) that also includes 9 DVDs and 7 CDs, produced by one of the most popular Sardinian publishers (L'Unione Sarda). Two works by Mariano Garau were also included among the multimedia contents. Wouldn't this qualify the source as a reliable one? Mcapozza (talk) 05:28, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Hello, the primary issue is that nothing in the article is directly cited as coming from the reference. When you do, feel free to remove the proposed deletion template. Uberaccount (talk) 20:42, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

editHello. I noticed that you attempted to file a deletion discussion (on the article Femininism) but did not complete the process. Please note that, when listing an article for deletion, a discussion page needs to be made for other users to discuss whether to keep or delete the article. This is typically done by following the steps listed here. Note that if you are editing as an unregistered user, you cannot create a discussion page. Please consider registering an account or asking another user to help you complete the process at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion. Thank you. Cindy(talk) 03:29, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
- Considering I made the article I am also looking forward to seeing the rationale behind this. Ranze (talk) 12:07, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
- Since it's been a few hours, I went ahead and removed the AFD tags. If you want, you can leave me a message with your rationale, and I'll complete the necessary steps for you. Or, you can visit WP:AFDHOWTO. You can also post a message at Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion, and someone there will assist. When crafting a rationale for deletion, please remember to cite specific policies. Thanks. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 18:14, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
- I was considering nominating for deletion, but I decided against it... I must have pushed save by accident. In the future, I will consider nominating it, but for now I do not intend to. Uberaccount (talk) 22:43, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
- OK. If you need an assist once it gets to that point, let me know. Thanks! UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 13:34, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
Article with infobox is not eligible for A3
editYou tagged Point Cook Football Club as {{db-empty}}, but please read the criterion at Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#A3 which clearly states that an article consisting only of an infobox does not come under A3. PamD 07:01, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
- I would disagree... quoting from the Criteria: "Similarly, this criterion does not cover a page having only an infobox, unless its contents also meet the above criteria", I believe that it would qualify under A3... what is your perspective? Uberaccount (talk) 17:56, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
- There's no "perspective" needed here, but just simple English comprehension. The quotation that you give says that an article with only an infobox does not qualify for speedy deletion under this criterion unless the infobox consists only of "external links, category tags and "see also" sections, a rephrasing of the title, attempts to correspond with the person or group named by its title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, chat-like comments, template tags, and/or images". That is clearly not the case here. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:28, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
- So, A7 should have kicked in? (✉→BWilkins←✎) 10:31, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
- Not if the infobox contains an indication of importance, as this one does. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:27, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: The Pill (film)
editHi Uberaccount. I didn't think this met criteria for speedy deletion as no-context. AfD or Prod may be more appropriate if sources cannot be found. Thanks. Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 03:43, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
Re: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Daniel Beckwitt Protection
editRe your message: I think semi-protection is sufficient here. The AfD was just a mess with all of the SPAs and vandalism going on. Semi-protection puts a stop to that and then there are no arguments about a !vote that should or should not have been accepted by the Pending Changes reviewer. There's no potential for claims of bias on the reviewer. I also believe that Pending Changes can only be applied articles not the entire namespace. The AfD will close in a few days and the whole issue will be resolved one way or another. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:12, 10 June 2013 (UTC)
I was confused myself because in addition to a unique meaning, the terms have also been used interchangably due to the similar spelling. Feminism is about women's rights and stuff like that, whereas femininism is about women's stereotyped attributes and conforming to them, even by men or collective nations. The problem is sometimes femininism is used to describe feminism and feminism was even used to describe femininism even though they have distinct meanings based on literature. That's mainly why I included excerpts in the reference section, to make the context usage clear. Ranze (talk) 11:11, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

editThank you for your endorsement of my 16 Dobles PROD. If this one goes, there are a number of other TV programs like it to consider for deletion.--DThomsen8 (talk) 19:39, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your help with the vital work of patrolling new pages. I noticed that you are not marking some of the pages you've reviewed as patrolled. Please do remember to click the 'mark this page as patrolled' link at the bottom of the new page if you have performed the standard patrolling tasks. Where appropriate, doing so saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page, so that they do not duplicate efforts. Thanks again for volunteering your time at the new pages patrol project. I could see yellow highlights (pages not yet marked as patrolled) on new pages and edits you made on the Special:NewPages page. Eyesnore Summer! (PC) 21:08, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
Old battle stubs
editI noticed you CSD tagged a couple of these by Mr.Manticore. This a sock of this guy. He does short stubs on old battles, often from the 1700s, which are often hoaxes. If you see any more of these, let me know, or you can re-open the SPI. INeverCry 21:47, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

Madhawey
editHi
You CSD tagged Madhawey as GS1; However, the article is written in Hindi and GS1 excludes material not written in English
Just a heads up.
Tompope33 (talk) 21:50, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up... I am now nominating it for G2 - I did not recognize that it was in Hindi. Uberaccount (talk) 22:54, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
Introduction
editHi,
Just by a strange coincidence I noticed that you are very active in nominating Wikipedia articles for deletion. I checked your account and it appears you have only been an editor less than four months and that you have not created any articles at all, and have added little to existing articles.
I myself have had a lot of work at Wikipedia deleted over the years, and I have seen many other editors leaving Wikipedia after seeing their work go down the drain. I believe there is a big disconnect between editors like you and editors like me.
Just wondering why you do what you do at Wikipedia? XOttawahitech (talk) 04:09, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
16 Dobles
edit16 Dobles still has the deletion notice, but it also has a talk page objection. Because I have not done this before, or done an AfD, either, I seek your advice on the proper procedure now. Does the objection require an AfD to go forward on the not notable grounds? Can someone merely delete the notice without making an objection, which is what happened today? I need help. Go ahead on the article itself, if you know what is the proper procedure, or reply to me right here.--DThomsen8 (talk) 23:43, 30 June 2013 (UTC)
Armstrong Atlantic State University
editAt Talk:Armstrong Atlantic State University#Neutrality, you wrote: Given the "our" in the College of Liberal Arts section, I question this article's neutrality.Uberaccount (talk) 03:00, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
- You challenged the articles neutrality over a single word? That's a trivial reason, particularly when considering the context:
- "Liberal arts have been the foundation of education at Armstrong since our founding. The College of Liberal Arts includes various departments and interdisciplinary programs that prepares graduates for careers in government, criminal justice, law, business, and entertainment. Students in the College of Liberal Arts study the arts, humanities, and social sciences in classroom environments and through internships, performances, exhibitions, undergraduate research projects and study abroad programs.
