[edit] Georgia Tech Freshman Experience

You deleted Georgia Tech Freshman Experience as WP:CSD#G4. The newer version appeared to have been created without knowledge of the former version, and I believe (but am not sure) that it cited a reasonable number of reliable sources, a contributing objection in the article's Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Georgia Tech Freshman Experience. If nothing else, we could restore it and move it to Georgia Tech Housing or Georgia Institute of Technology Housing (the latter is currently a redirect) (not sure how to phase/capitalize that one) which would probably have a better assertion of notability. Thanks! —Disavian (talk/contribs) 04:54, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Why?

Hello Chris

Could I be so bold to ask you why you removed a speedy deletion notice? Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs)☺ 17:15, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

I am an administrator currently patrolling Speedy deletions and probably felt it was unfit for speedy deletion. Do you have a specific example? Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:16, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

This article Light Anti-Structures Missile, personally I dont really think it has any real world priority the missle just seems a spin off of another and it has no references. Yours, Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs)☺ 17:18, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

It does have a reference. It may or may not need to be deleted, however I did not feel it met one of our cristiera for speedy deletion. You are welcome to propose it for non controversial deletion or take it ti articles for deletion. Your call. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:19, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

To do a proposed deletion I just add "{{subst:prod|reason}}", dont I? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Police,Mad,Jack (talk • contribs)

Yes, prods need to be substed. A quick heads up though, prods can be removed by anybody if they disagree with it. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:23, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Akim Aliu

Hi, I see you deleted Akim Aliu citing A7. Was it speedied or prodded? Want was the current state of it? He has played professionally [1] at that meets WP:BIO. I'm not trying to be difficult: a AFD discussion would be a close call, but there's no way he's a speedy. ccwaters (talk) 17:37, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Ok, I will undelete it if you take it to AFD. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:38, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Sure. Give me a few minutes. ccwaters (talk) 17:40, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
CAn you give me the talk page too. I think I recall a discussion about this on his talk ccwaters (talk) 17:42, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Yep, no problem. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:42, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, I guess not, I think we might have talked about him at WP:HOCKEY somewhere then. Anyway, I've given the original speedy nominator a chance to AFD it here, if he doesn't respond, I guess I'll nominate. ccwaters (talk) 17:53, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD vs. speedy

Why did you remove the {{db-author}} tags from Migratorius, Monogyna, Rubecula and Oblonga? The author of those pages requested deletion, and even if there is an AfD present for all four pages, the pages clearly meet G7 criteria. I have never seen any rule that says AfD and speedy cannot overlap if the speedy criterion is valid; furthermore, I see no reason to drag out the process when there're perfectly legit concerns for speedy deletion. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 17:52, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

I very often close the AFD as part of a speedy process. However, looking at the disambiguation pages, they looked somewhat useful to me. Just because an editor requests a page be delete does not mean it always has to be deleted. I understand where you are coming form by wanting to get it over with but figure some input from the community on redirects such as those listed above could not hurt. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:55, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
I also cannot find where the orignial author is requesting deletion? That is part of the criteria of G7 which you are listing them under. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:57, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

NVM, I just went ahead and deleted them. I woulda rather let the AFD run its course but why not. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 18:02, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] AfD

Dear Admin, Would Polar cities be speedily delete considering its copyright violations? I'm surprised its still around: [2] I carried out a google search on the article's words and all the article's info comes from this blog site I noted. Just curious. Artene50 (talk) 01:03, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] not that important, but

you speedied Editing At-One as a "copyvio - G11." But g11 is spam and g12 is copyvio. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 14:53, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

It was actually a little bit of both! I find that most copyvios are also pretty spammy. I often tag both in my CSD reason just to be clear. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 15:04, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re, "Be careful"

Hi,

Please can you check that one; I am pretty sure that Erm IS nonsense and should be deleted, and the real placename is Achterste Erm ?

If that's true, though, it's been there for a long time, and it will need changing in Coevorden and Template:Coevorden-town

I have responded on your talk page. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 18:58, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of EQ screenshot.

While I am not too concerned with the actual shot removed... it doesn't much affect the article and is just one more example of what the screens look like.

However, the reasoning behind including screenshots from video games in the video game articles is very important. Can you tell me what the problem with http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Image:Crystal_Caverns_Queen_spider_lair.jpg&action=edit&redlink=1

was?

Sinneed (talk) 19:46, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Proper fair use rationale had not been provided and it had been 7 days since it was tagged. After an image is tagged with a fair use problem, there are 7 days to get it sorted out. After that they are subjet to deletion. For more details on what exactly is required for fair use of a copyrighted image, please read WP:FUC. In short, there was no fair use rationale, or the fair use rational did not provide article specific context (seperate fair use statements are required for each article a fair use image is used in, and the name of the article must appear specifically in the fair use critiera). An example of a good fair use statement can be seen here. Hope this helps. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 19:50, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunately, the tagging does not trigger an event on the watchlist for the article. If the image can be brought back, I may be able to provide some insight. I am curious as to why the image was tagged after, what, years ago? I am also curious as to how it is different from the other images. It is from LONG before I even accessed wiki, so I don't even know what the image showed, much less what its rationale was. It may indeed not belong here at all. I generally am dubious of ALL images in these articles... I see them as eye-candy that drives up the real cost of the wiki project while providing only limited value. :) Sinneed (talk) 21:27, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

There has recently been a push to ensure that all of our images are fair use compliant. The problem was not with the image, the problem was with the fair use statement. There was a week given to fix it and nobody did so it was deleted. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 15:08, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

OMG thank you so much, and your welcome by the way just doing my duty =] I reported him so I'm sure he can expect a block. Thanks again! Police,Mad,Jack (talk · contribs)☺ 17:43, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Yea, he was already blocked. Chrislk02 Chris Kreider 17:44, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

You have the Let sleeping rockstars lie achievement?! I'm jealous! xenocidic (talk) 18:01, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I actually just got that last night. I was in a GTA race and I think there were two of them and my brother killed one so I made sure to swoop in for a kill before ending the race (they were great at setting up roadblocks, it was quite possible the most perfect roadblock I had ever seen).
