Orphaned non-free media (Image:FernandoAmorsoloPortraitofFilipinoBagoboMale.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:FernandoAmorsoloPortraitofFilipinoBagoboMale.jpg. 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 'image' 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 "Image" 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. BetacommandBot 01:08, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Myxocyprinus asiaticus

Nice work on this article- I have been patrolling for hours, and it's the best new article I have seen. Generally, article titles are the English name, and we only use the Latin name if there is no English name. However, this animal has so many common names, I wasn't sure which to move it to.

Template:Infobox Philippine mythology

I saw your post on WP:AN and was wondering what really needed to be done, like adding it to every Philippine mythological character? I want to help, I'm just not an expert in the area of Philippine mythology, if you could aid me in telling me which articles you are speaking of, that would help. — Moe ε 01:30, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Can I ask which template you based the design off of? — Moe ε 02:58, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

See [1] I think the template is now functional. See the template for usage. It's slightly different, but thats because I couldn't get that formatting correct, it was much more complicated than what I'm used to. Don't worry about it either, I once spent 6 or 7 hours fixing a template for someone. — Moe ε 03:22, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Yep, it's all functional. I'm not much of a Philippine mythology expert, so I better leave the infoboxes up to you, but ask again if you have anymore template requests. :) — Moe ε 03:29, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you very much Dragonbite! I'll display it on my userpage proudly :) — Moe ε 03:59, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Myxocyprinus asiaticus

Can you please move Chinese high fin banded shark back to Myxocyprinus asiaticus. We have an established naming protocol for fish article names (see here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Fishes#fauna_article_naming_conventions). In this case, because Myxocyprinus asiaticus is referred to under a number of common names (high-fin shark, freshwater batfish, wimple, Chinese banded shark, etc.), none of them universally, then the Latin name is favoured. I noticed you create the article initially under the Latin name, so if I might say so, your initial approach was the right one! Thanks very much! Neale Neale Monks 10:04, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. It's a great article by the way. I didn't know they were endangered. Because of the risk of becoming established in UK waters, they are banned from the fishkeeping trade here by DEFRA.[2] So I haven't seen one for many years. Cheers, Neale Neale Monks 20:35, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use disputed for Image:Hossam Fahr UN Interpreter on CNNDiplomatic License.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Hossam Fahr UN Interpreter on CNNDiplomatic License.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 02:29, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:UNSecretariatNewscover2001.jpg.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:UNSecretariatNewscover2001.jpg.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ~ Wikihermit 02:56, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Image:Image-UN_Swords_into_Plowshares_Statue.JPG (Copied from here)

Hi Jreferee: Can you comment on this? Sometime ago you requested me to move this image to commons, but now it was deleted there and here of course. Thanks. - Dragonbite 07:20, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

See discussion below:

Hello there. I just want to know why you deleted this image which is my own work. I photographed it myself, therefore I am the copyrightholder and contributor of this image. I would like you to undelete it. If you can't, kindly let me know on my talk page so I could upload it from my camera again. I was even requested by an editor at Wikipedia to move this image to commons. I believe deletion was unnecessary. Thank you. - Dragonbite 06:43, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

And please note that this image is definitely NOT A DERIVATIVE WORK. I took the image myself! - Dragonbite 06:55, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

But you didn't create the statue by yourself, which seems to not fall under Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#USA. See Commons:Derivative works --Flominator 07:10, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

So there are different policies at Commons and Wikipedia? - Dragonbite 07:15, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Commons:Freedom_of_panorama#USA only applies to "publication of an image of a copyrighted artwork". It doesn't say "publication of an image that also include a copyrighted artwork." Commons:Derivative works only applies to a picture of a sculpture. That photo is a panorama image that includes much more than the copyrighted artwork statute. It is much more than a picture of a sculpture. I don't think delete is appropriate, at least not without discussion and consensus. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 18:44, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't think I recommended moving the image to commons. ("Image moved/uploaded there as requested by Sfan00 IMG via my talk page on August 4, 2007.") However, if it is a copyrighted artwork statute, then Wikipedia fair use may apply since the image cannot be replaced by a free image. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 18:54, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I restored Image:UN Swords into Plowshares Statue.JPG. Please review the licensing and fair use. -- Jreferee ^(Talk) 19:15, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

OTHER COMMENTS (as my reference/ source: retrieved from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Media_copyright_questions on September 8, 2007): [edit] Image:Image-UN_Swords_into_Plowshares_Statue.JPG Hello there. I just want to know why User:Polarlys deleted this image which is my own work. I photographed it myself, therefore I am the copyrightholder and contributor of this image. I would like you to undelete it. If you can't, kindly let me know so I could upload it from my camera again. I was even requested by an editor at Wikipedia to move this image to commons. It was originally uploaded as Image here at Wikipedia before moving to commons. I believe deletion was unnecessary. Thank you. - Dragonbite 07:06, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

And please note that this image is definitely NOT A DERIVATIVE WORK. I took the image myself! User:Polarlys is mistaken in this matter! - Dragonbite 07:06, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

It wasn't deleted; it was renamed and moved back to the English Wikipedia as a fair use image. Look for Image:UN_Swords_into_Plowshares_Statue.JPG. The problem is, I think, that the statue appears to still be under copyright. In that case, your photo and all others of it are indeed derivative works -- although you of course own the copyright to the original elements in the photo. (This means that the photo of it on [[United Nations Art Collection] is mistagged, since it also is derivative of a work copyrighted to someone else and cannot be GFDL.) The statue was made by a Soviet sculptor working in the USSR. Under Soviet law at the time it was made, copyright protection extended to the life of the author plus 15 years. Since the sculptor died in 1974, it would have fallen into the public domain in 1989. However, in 1973 the USSR became party to the UCC and in consequence extended copyright to 25 years after the death of the author. All right; another 10 years and it becomes PD in 1999. However, the USSR fell in 1991, and in 1993 the new Russian copyright law extended it to 50 years after the death of the author. However, the US has long been party to the UCC, which specifically mandates that all work "published" by the UN be protected under US copyright law. (The UCC was promulgated by UNESCO, so that's a valid provision binding on the UN.) Displaying a statue in public constitutes "publishing" it. That provision was put into effect in 1971, at which time it would have acquired the registration US law required at the time. The original term would have been 28 years from that date with an optional 28 year renewal period. Subsequent changes to the law extended the renewal period and made renewal automatic for pre-1978 works. So even if it was PD under Russian law, it's still protected under US law. TCC (talk) (contribs) 23:02, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS FROM COMMONS: I believe that the sculpture is the main subject of the image and that the image is as such a derivative work of the sculpture. However, the sculpture was published in 1959 and created by Soviet Union citizen w:Yevgeny Vuchetich. Maybe it is Template:PD-US-no notice? Or it may have been first published in the Soviet Union and as such the 50 years pma applies. I don't know. -- Bryan (talk to me) 09:23, 8 September 2007 (UTC) Retrieved from "http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Undeletion_requests/Current_requests"

Uploads of Fernando Amorsolo paintings

I noticed that you tagged all of these as being available under the Free Art License - can you please provide a source that states how these paintings are licensed? I wasn't able to find licensing information on the source you provided and per the research I've done, it appears that these paintings are still under copyright. Thanks.

Replaceable fair use Image:ObandoFertilityDancePhilTourismOffice.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:ObandoFertilityDancePhilTourismOffice.jpg. I noticed the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy.

wikipedia image policies

Hi Rodriguez, I've tagged many of your images for deletion. I think it would help if you reviewed WP:NONFREE to check out wikipedia's nonfree image policies. As a general rule, if someone could take a new free photo of the subject, we can't take a nonfree image of the same thing. That's why we can't accept copyrighted images of living people, existing buildings, recurring events, or types of goldfish. Also, each image has to contribute significantly to the article. That's why, for instance, we probably can't accept the images of all the old UN Tour Guides, because even if we can't take those photos again, it doesn't help the reader too much to have them there. If you have any more questions, you can ask on my talk page. Calliopejen1 19:46, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:NewYorkCityRecycleProgramPoster.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:NewYorkCityRecycleProgramPoster.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 19:55, 21 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. —An gr 19:55, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:BrooklynBotanicGardenLogo.JPG)

Thanks for uploading Image:BrooklynBotanicGardenLogo.JPG. 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).

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:TheTabletBrooklynNYJune2007.jpg.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:TheTabletBrooklynNYJune2007.jpg.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:49, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Deletion requests

May I ask why you are requesting the deletion of several dozen perfectly good articles? – – Gurch 21:58, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I would also like to say, that if you think an article should be speedily deleted and would like to put a template on that article's talk page, then just add the template, do not remove all other content from the page and just have the template there. ~ Bella Swan 22:00, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Peronal reasons. And my affiliation with the UN Organization. Writing about UN-related articles need permission (for every article). If articles have to be written about these subjects, it has to be them or others other than me who should write/rewrite/or request undeletion of the subjects. Let me assure you though that the subjects liked the articles. My apologies to Wikipedia and its readers. I will still contribute articles, but about non-UN related articles. - Dragonbite 22:09, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I understand your reasons but I'm not sure about deleting them so I left a message at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Rodsan18. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 22:20, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I have added a comment on the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Rodsan18 discussion page. Please read said comment and reply there before adding any more deletion templates. Thank you. ---RepublicanJacobite_{The'FortyFive'} 22:29, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I am assuming the reason you are not allowed to publish these articles is because you might accidentally put classified info in them? If that is the case, I really hate to tell you this, but if we delete them they will still be on Wikimedias servers, they will just be only accessible to admins. --Mschel 22:27, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Nothing truly confidential, a group are just making an issue. (Not the subjects.) So please delete them or find a way by tagging the articles once permission is obtained as I mentioned at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#User:Rodsan18 etc. - Dragonbite 22:36, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

You also have to contend with this. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 22:39, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Just kindly delete the original articles for a fellow editor's sake. Or find a legal way/tagging them. That these were written based on third party sources and that this is a collaborative team, not just written by one author. I don't know. Suggestions. Thanks. - Dragonbite 22:46, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Other editors who want to look over the articles should see User:Rodsan18#United_Nations-related_subjects. This is the set of 35 articles that are listed there as being related to the UN. My view is that a number have notability, and others don't. Perhaps this might be acknowledged by setting up a group AfD for the ones that lack notability? Once the articles have been created, copyright has been released and there is no reason to go back. It's only a question of notability. EdJohnston 00:08, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

For my record here: source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/IncidentArchive304#User:Rodsan18

User:Rodsan18

The user is tagging multiple articles that they created for deletion based on the fact that as they work for the UN they should not be the ones to write them. It this an acceptable reason. I'm sure the user is acting with good intentions and not meaning to be disruptive. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 22:19, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I am the one who is affected; a particular group is making issue out of these due to confidentiality reasons. - Dragonbite 22:22, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I have reverted the addition of all the deletion templates. Until this matter is sorted out here, please do not reinsert the templates. I do not doubt your good intentions here, and I am assuming good faith, but let's allow the matter to be sorted out rather than getting into a revert war. Your reasoning is, quite frankly, baffling to me. Are you saying that there are people at the UN who are making an issue about the existence of these pages? ---RepublicanJacobite_{The'FortyFive'} 22:26, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes. - Dragonbite 23:49, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

At a quick scan, a lot of these articles look to be of dubious notability anyway. ELIMINATORJR 22:30, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I reverted a couple you missed, RepublicanJacobite. As for the dubious notability I agree, but isn't dubious notability a case for AfD (or possibly {{prod}} rather than simply blanking and adding a non-standard speedy template? Tonywalton | Talk 22:35, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Well, speaking as someone who had actually deleted a couple of them (I've restored them until this is worked out), I'd say that regardless of the template applied, lack of assertion of notability is sufficient for speedy deletion, full stop. The ones I saw really didn't assert notability. But, given that it's contentious, I've restored 'em to let someone else look at them. - Philippe | Talk 22:37, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I am affiliated with UN too. Writing articles about UN-related subjects need permission (for me). I was informed. So I suggest Wikipedia itself, if the community wants to retain these articles, send permission request (for images too for all language Wikipedias) by contacting Ms. Renu Bhatia, Deputy Executive Officer, Department of General Assembly and Conference Management by sending email at bhatia@un.org. Thank you. Please send me a copy (cc) via my email only. - Dragonbite 22:42, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't really think that's going to work... the bell has been rung, and they're in the 'pedia. If the images truly were appropriately licensed when uploaded, we don't need permission to use them. We certainly don't need permission to have a bio of someone on the 'pedia, either. I still believe notability is not asserted for most of these, but that's just me... - Philippe | Talk 22:44, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Even if deleted from Wikipedia some are still available on the mirrors. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CambridgeBayWeather (talk • contribs) 22:46, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

The articles were actually based on third-party sources published. But why can't just respect request by original author. Thanks. - Dragonbite 23:22, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I actually agree with those above who question the notability of many of these individuals. I had the same thought as I was reverting the speedy requests. The notability, it seems, is rather a different issue, though, than the question of whether we need "permission" from the UN to have articles about some of its employees. Could they not all go to AfD as a group and let the matter of notability be sorted out there? ---RepublicanJacobite_{The'FortyFive'} 23:48, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

That's not how it works Rodsan18. We don't need to ask permission from the UN to talk abotu a subject in Wikipedia. It's not our duty to contact you; it's the UN's duty to contact the foundation if there is a complaint. ⇒ SWATJester ^{Denny Crane.} 23:35, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

While true, I don't find that relevant. The {{db-author}} is a valid speedy deletion criteria. From the couple of articles I have looked at, he's been the only contributor (cats, linking, & formating are not substantive edits). What is the basis for ignoring our speedy deletion policy and keeping the ones that no one else has contributed towards? -- JLaTondre 23:46, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Another way of putting it is that this seems to be primarily an issue between the U.N. and its employee(s). There doesn't seem to be any outright gross violation of WP policy with the articles, so an appropriate judgment of what's best for the encyclopedia needs to occur. That said, both lack of notability needs to be given due weight and the db-self request ought to be a robust tie-breaker in favor of deletion. If they're truly notable, someone will add them back. Studerby 23:49, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

CSD G7 is a criteria for when administrators may delete things immediately. It is not a criteria for when they must do so, absent other considerations. This issue came up in respect of another user very recently. Sam Blacketer 23:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

Please just respect deletion request: CSD 7:Author requests deletion, if requested in good faith, and provided the page's only substantial content was added by its author. If the author blanks the page, this can be taken as a deletion request. - Dragonbite 23:53, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

A deletion request is not the same as a deletion order. It is perfectly legitimate for an administrator to decline to delete an article even if it meets several speedy deletion criteria. Sam Blacketer 23:55, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

It may not be an order but it still needs to be respected nonetheless? - Dragonbite 00:01, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

While I appreciate the position you're in, please understand that we're trying to figure out what is and is not appropriate for the encyclopedia. If the articles that you submitted are notable and appropriate, we can't just go around deleting them all willy-nilly. If they're not notable, then we sure as heck need to get them out. The issue between you and your employer is not something within which we care to be involved, probably. As Studerby said above, we're trying to make a judgment upon what's best for the encyclopedia. In my case, I'm leaning toward speedy-delete on the ones that don't assert notability and AFD for those which are of questionable notability. My guess is that most of them will end up deleted. - Philippe | Talk 00:14, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

A group AfD is exactly the suggestion I made above. I think it is the best way to put this issue to rest. ---RepublicanJacobite_{The'FortyFive'} 00:17, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

May I make a suggestion? I think Wikipedia should be sensitive to security problems; may I suggest office action? The Evil Spartan 00:23, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't see where the notion of "security problems" comes from, to be honest. I'd agree with RepublicanJacobite here - group AfD for the apparently non-notable entries. Or for all the entries; let the WP community decide what's notable in WP terms. I'm not sure that {{db-blanked}} appies in all cases either. Tonywalton | Talk 00:34, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

This has never occurred to me before, but surely the very idea of CSD: 7 violates WP:OWN, since, the moment they hit save, the article becomes free to all, and surely by existence of CSD 7, except when mistakes are made in the name(even though a re-direct is more appropriate), they are breaking WP:Own, by assuming they are within their rights to have a page deleted because they want it to be--Jac16888 01:05, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Technically, the deleted content is still available to admins, and complies with GFDL. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to delete anything. Everything ever published is still recoverable, unless it has been oversighted. If there are no other significant contributors, and the deletion would not harm the encyclopedia, I see no problem with honoring the author's CSD request. If someone else feels strongly about a specific article, they can request a restore, and work on it. Dean Wormer 02:02, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I will argue against that idea. When one nominates a page for speedy deletion, they're still leaving it up to others (and/or the deciding admin) whether or not the deletion notice stands, or if the article gets deleted. The original creator can place a hangon notice, or another editor can merely remove it. --健次(derumi)^talk 01:24, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I note belatedly we're discussing G7, not A7. Still, some other editor or admin could remove the tag if they feel the article should stay. --健次(derumi)^talk 02:29, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

My own view, and I should stress this is merely an opinion not a decree of any kind, is that these are borderline notable people at best (and probably not), that the articles were created in good faith under circumstances that nevertheless give rise to conflict-of-interest questions, and that the original creator is making a good faith request now. I see no special reason not to honor that request. I would be very concerned if we get into some kind of weird "gotcha" mode where someone has created an article that perhaps should not exist, and only decide to keep it because they want it deleted. If any of the individuals are of any super special notability, I am sure someone else could create a brand new article from scratch.--Jimbo Wales 10:54, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I have been bold and deleted all the articles that IMO qualified for deletion as non-notable biographies. The following biographies remain;

and the following non-biographies.

- United Nations Interpretation Service
- United Nations Art Collection

Some consensus to what should happen with these is now required. ELIMINATORJR 11:49, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Were this an AfD I'd be saying "delete" to all but the two non-biographical articles, for what it's worth. Tonywalton | Talk 12:45, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

Possibly; some are borderline. Reyes probably passes WP:MUSIC, whilst the Russians may be notable for their books. ELIMINATORJR 15:08, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I found the last two (Igor Korchilov and Jean Herbert) to be informative articles about notable people. There shouldn't be any security issues about Herbert, as he is dead. The non-bio articles are notable and interesting. If they are all the work of User:Rodsan18 (and they do seem to be), then an off-wiki discussion to sort out exactly what can and can't be kept should sort things out. I suspect the problem is with material added that might not be available from public sources (eg. lists of interpreters). Such material should be oversighted. See the article history of United Nations Interpretation Service. Any material that is sourced to publically available sources should be kept. One possible solution, to disassociate Rodsan18 from the material, is for a cut and paste copy of the article to be made in his userspace (minus any non-public information and any extra edits from other people), for the original article history to be deleted, for Rodsan18 to release the edited copy in his userspace into the public domain, and for another user to restart the article using that material, with an edit summary like "using author-released public domain copy of edited version of previous article that was deleted". Does that work? Carcharoth 03:32, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
