*::{{U|Aazubuike}}, It is very unlikely that {{user|FreeRangeFrog}} will restore the page. The [[Terragon Group|deleted page]] obviously did not meet the [[WP:GNG|general notability guidelines]] for inclusion on wikipedia. [[Terragon Group]] is a new media firm in [[Nigeria]]. inclusion of a subject on wikipedia is based on [[WP:N|notability]]. I think the company needs time to become notable enough for inclusion on wikipedia. However if you want the article to be forwarded to your mail, mr. Frog may consider to help (thou not too sure) only if you won't recreate it here again. Happy editing. [[User:Wikicology|Wikicology]] ([[User talk:Wikicology|talk]]) 16:12, 27 October 2014 (UTC) |

Thanks FRF for your adjustments to the Andrew Jarecki page. Is it possible for me to email or message you privately? Andrew Jarecki — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elliot36 (talk • contribs) 20:38, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
- Unless you are planning to share some information that cannot be made public (which is probably not necessary in this case), we prefer to handle everything here in the open. Fixes to articles and content issues should be discussed here. Otherwise, you can email me with the link on the left-hand of the screen. Your subsequent edits to the article are OK, given how poorly they were sourced. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 19:20, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
- To expand on this... it doesn't matter who is making the edits or why. There is no need to justify removal other than when seeking consensus, and that has to happen here in any case. What matters is whether or not the information is appropriate given our policies. Neutrality, quality sourcing and undue weight are what I considered when I removed that mess on the bio. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 19:22, 6 October 2014 (UTC)

DeskAlerts
Hi FreeRangeFrog, You deleted my page. I requested that it not be deleted or that someone give me some constructive feedback to improve my page. I'm confused as to why my page was deleted when I've seen dozens (and I'm sure there are hundreds more) of high tech corporate pages?
Would you please let me know? I worked hard on that page and I would like to put it back up. I was also working on another tech page...so I could really use some constructive feedback on how to get it back up. Thank you in advance for your assistance. Best wishes, --WikiGuru100 (talk) 19:06, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi FreeRangeFrog, Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. I researched and got some facts on the websites/articles I used for citations:
Recruiter -- Has 350k monthly visitors and is a third-party, impartially written article CIO Review -- Is both a print and online publication based in the Bay Area (thus it has expertise in the high tech arena) Enterprise Systems Journal -- 50k UV monthly WebWorks is not impressive, I will remove it. TMCnet.com -- 3.5mm readers monthly MrWeb -- the UK’s biggest MR recruitment medium, ie since the year 2000 our ads have helped to fill more UK MR jobs than any magazine, newspaper or any other Web site
I will smooth out the business jargon so that it reads more neutral. Would you please put it back up and let me continue to work on it? --WikiGuru100 (talk) 20:26, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

- OK, restored. Please edit the article to make it less promotional, make sure you have some kind of assertion of basic importance there, or someone will tag it for deletion again. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 00:43, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
Hey FreeRangeFrog. I was wondering if you could provide a second opinion on whether we should remove this BLP's compensation to respect his privacy, or merely source it as a matter of public interest. There are plenty of reliable sources,[1][2][3][4] but none that I have found suggest the information is a huge matter of public interest. OTOH, he was the CEO of a Fortune 500 public company for eight years and a person in that position has their compensation publicly available as a matter of governance. CorporateM (Talk) 23:33, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
- @CorporateM: Removed. Not sure what the point of that was. In some cases compensation of a CEO might be a contentious issue due to mismanagement or corporate performance, but without such context it's nothing more than trivia. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 23:38, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
- ok, thanks. It looks like he took a 25% cut during an industry-wide slow-down, then bumped back up 25% a few years later. He is listed highly in rankings, but not with any specific criticisms or context that I've seen so far. CorporateM (Talk) 23:56, 9 October 2014 (UTC)
- Well, that would be a good example of context (positive in this case I suppose), but otherwise it shouldn't even be there. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 23:59, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

RS Components - French
Hi FreeRangeFrog,
I am writing in regards, to the deletion french version of the RS Components:
Here is the UK version: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS_Components
This is simply a french version of the page with similar content. Allowing the information available in multiple languages.
Please let me know the best course of action.
Kind regards,

- You know there's a French Wikipedia right? That's where that goes. We don't speedy delete articles because they're in another language, but I can read just enough French to know that it was indeed written as a brochure or press release rather than an encyclopedic article. And quite frankly the existing English one is not much better. I don't know what the content policies are are in the French Wikipedia and I don't know if they'll accept something so badly written, but in any case that's where your article goes, not here. If you want the deleted text let me know. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 16:33, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

I will be working on the DeskAlerts page over the next week to fix it. Thank you very much!--WikiGuru100 (talk) 15:35, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
Reconsideration Request
Dear FreeRangeFrog,
I uploaded an article on straightline.in on Wikipedia a few days back. Being a happy customer of the website, I thought I should write on it (as there were no pages on the same). I do not have any connection with their website whatsoever and was taken aback when my article was labelled as promotional. Would you be kind enough to help me understand, what seemed promotional so that I can rectify it and get the page uploaded.Souvikchelsea1 (talk) 10:04, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
- The article was written in a promotional tone that read like a PR release, although I will admit it had secondary sources rather than primary ones, but the wording on what you were paraphrasing was all wrong. I question your claim that you have no connection to them given that you wrote "The Technological Leverage to this website is provided by IBM and Cognizant" - it's difficult to know the technology behind a website unless they happen to be promoting it. Nevertheless, creating a draft and submitting it for review would probably be a good idea. You can do that here. If you want the original text let me know and I can email it to you. I won't restore it though, because it will be tagged for the same thing immediately. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 18:10, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
Request for reconsideration of deleted page User:Shashank.S.Shukla
Dear Sir; My User Page by the name of User:Shashank.S.Shukla was deleted quoting blatant misuse. I have no intention of misusing Wikipedia as I respect it as a resource base. I however want to continue working on wikipedia. I am not sure how I can do that without a page. I may humbly request that if any content on my page was objectionable then that should have been deleted instead of deleting the page itself. Thanks in advance and apologies for any inconvenience.
Regards; Shashank — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shashank.S.Shukla (talk • contribs) 14:09, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
- What you have there now is acceptable, considering you have less than 10 edits to the whole of the encyclopedia. What you had there before was not acceptable, because you had less than 10 edits to the encyclopedia. See how that works? §FreeRangeFrogcroak 18:02, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
It's not a hoax, Kim Jung Un has not been seen in public since Sept. 3, 2014
This is no hoax, Kim Jung Un has mysteriously disappeared from public view. Every major news agency has an article about it. Example: from the NEW YORK TIMES
SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, who has been absent from public view for more than a month, skipped an important annual ritual on Friday, a development likely to fuel further speculation about whether he has lost his grip on power.
The state news media hinted Friday that he might be ill though still in charge, lending support to one of the many theories swirling among analysts, the media and others who closely watch the nuclear-armed and notoriously opaque nation. Friday was the anniversary of the founding of the governing Worker’s Party and he ordinarily would have been expected to visit the mausoleum where his grandfather — the country’s founder — and his father lie in state. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.104.93.158 (talk) 03:59, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Opinion and advice
How are you doing FreeRangeFrog? Sir I seek for your opinion on certain issues. Three weeks ago, there was a report against me at ANI where various concern were raised on my edit behavior particularly about one NAC of a controversial discussion. Other concerned include my hostile tones on Newbies. prior to the report, I had learn not to be harsh on newbies or any editor based on the advice you left on my talk page about my tone when replying your msg. But they acted on my old habit. Some raised a suggestion that I should not patrol NP, as this will limit my encounter with newbies but unknown to them, your note on my talk page has change my orientation on how to interact with Newbies. Luckily for me, I was not sanction at the end of the discussion which lasted for two good weeks. Having learn from my mistake, I intend to patrol NP and your brotherly opinion and advice will count on this decision. Thanks. Wikicology (talk) 16:54, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
- The best advice I can give you is to not take things personally, and maybe volunteer for the Teahouse for a while. If you were not banned by consensus from NPP then you can still do it, although if the same things start happening you can and will probably be sanctioned. Just be careful how you interact with new users. Be careful what you say and how you say it. Perhaps the problem is more of a language issue, and that will take a lot of careful practice to correct. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 18:15, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you mr. Frog! I will take absolute precautions. However, I never got any information that I was banned from NPP. Is it possible for me to be ban without anyone leaving such notice on my talk page? Wikicology (talk) 18:38, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
- No, you would have to have received a notification from an administrator. Perhaps it would be a good idea to archive your talk page rather than simply delete its contents. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 18:41, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
- I will subscribe to your suggestions. Thanks for your time Wikicology (talk) 18:53, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

- No, there's no need for me to check anything, Wikipedia doesn't have a gatekeeper or formal review board. I recommended AFC because that's probably the best approach after you've had an article deleted, since you can work on it unmolested until it's ready and then submit it for review. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 21:26, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
Hi, thank so much for help. I think that was big mistake but I created draft which I published (status: Review waiting) and I created new page with the same content. Can you help me with this?

- You should not be creating the article, since we agreed you have a conflict of interest here, but there's nothing I can do once the article is live, so it all depends on whether or not someone nominates it for deletion at this point. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 23:28, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
Page deletion for Globo_PLC
Hello FreeRangeFrog,I have posted pages about companies to Wiki before in this format and have never had problems with verifying significance. I also see other companies listed on wikipedia with the same level of information supporting significance. Could you explain why the page was deleted when we included verifiable sources and have not made any false statements? Are there any additional indications that need to be included?

Hi FreeRangeFrog. I was hoping you might have a few minutes to provide a fourth opinion of sorts regarding a potential BLP-type issue.
A few editors have, after being notified by me, agreed to remove the following sentence from the McKinsey & Company page, where I have a COI:
For example, according to an article citing public tax records, a senior partner in McKinsey's Norway office earned 67 million NOK in 2011, or between $11 and $12 million USD.(source)
Each time the sentence and/or some related material is removed, it has been restored by user:My2011[5][6][7] in a kind of slow-rolling, mild edit-war over the last year and a half.
My2011 believes I am trying to censor or hide criticisms regarding McKinsey's high salaries. I don't feel this particular employee's salary is really that significant such that it over-rides privacy concerns and note that extensive profile stories I feel are more reliable say most directors earn $1-$3 million.[8][9]
