*'''Endorse closure''' Per Protonk, who made the excellent point that even the Arbs, who are said to be attacked, are participating. Too often we assume that any on-wiki review or endorsement sort of process is Inherently Evil, but when the subjects themselves--and no, it does not require all of them to support it--participate, it's quite fine. All that aside, re-opening the MfD will be more drama, and 70% was snow country in any event. <font color="0D670D" face="Georgia, Helvetica">[[User:Rootology|rootology]]</font> (<font color="#156917">[[Special:Contributions/Rootology|C]]</font>)(<font color="#156917">[[User talk:Rootology|T]]</font>) 14:15, 18 December 2008 (UTC) |

Numerous Images all deleted by bjweeks
Numerous Images all deleted by bjweeks (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (restore | cache | AfD))
I came back to Wikipedia after years away to get 3 images deleted[1][2] that I said were my own but were actually not. The 3 copyvios were pictures of pictures and were all fuzzy and low resolution. All of my other images are obviously taken in real life, and you can can tell by the EXIF data. These pictures were all high quality and used in multiple articles. I was trying to make things right now by telling everyone exactly which pictures needed to be deleted. In his rage against me for my insulting of the admin community here [3], Bjweeks got carryed away and deleted every single image I ever uploaded[4]. 98.213.141.241 (talk) 07:52, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

If needed for verification, I have the originals and other pictures in the series.
- Side Note: In the process of trying to get these images deleted, I got into arguments with other editors[5]. In their rage against me, admins have blocked another user[6] with whom I have never had any contact because he spoke up in support of me.[7] I have never used sockpuppets, and found this new attack almost funny for its shear absurdity.
- Speedy close, more trolling by banned user Ewok Slayer. Stifle (talk) 09:57, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Overturn User was blocked, not banned as far as I can remember, but that is totally irrelevant. Their block was for using an image in a signature. Unless the deleting admin can show where these supposed violations were taken from, there's no evidence these images were actually a blatant copyright violation (the underlined part is important). Unless it is absolutely clear (with a link that shows it's an unequivocal copyvio), it should be discussed properly rather than speedied. - Mgm|(talk) 10:46, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Overturn per comments by MacGyverMagic. Whilst I appreciate that finding a few copyright violations in a user's uploads requires close inspection of their other uploads, I'm not able to see why these are "blatantly" copy vios. The images which the uploader highlighted as copyright violations are clearly of a very different style to the others. Trolling or not, I assume these images were used in article so ultimately our readers might be being disadvantaged by these deletions so it is right to take the time to consider these more carefully.

Asking for a re-opening of the debate. The debate was closed after 17 hours as a non-admin closure by User:Sceptre invoking WP:SNOW; however at 23 keeps to 14 deletes, and there was no indication that this was a WP:SNOW case. Twice already someone has tried to restart the debate, as the early close has apparently not allowed enough interested parties to comment. Given the potential widespread interest in this AFD, there does not seem to have been an adequate time given to allow enough comments to judge consensus. It may turn out any number of ways, including a "no consensus keep" eventually, but this should really be allowed to run the full five days; or at least longer than a few hours, to judge the consensus. 70% keep is hardly a snow-able situation... Jayron32.talk.contribs 21:39, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
Reopen - not enough time, not enough of an imbalance in the opinions to snow it. (Disclaimer: I supported deletion.)never mind, keep this drama generator running, I guess. Tony Fox (arf!) 21:43, 17 December 2008 (UTC)- Endorse - vote counting, the keeps outweigh the deletes by a significant margin. Also, I don't think the "attack page" rationale for deletion was that strong (it's not attacking NYB, for example). Sceptre (talk) 22:15, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- reopen Might as well let the matter go through a full MfD. I see no compelling reason not to. JoshuaZ (talk) 22:45, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse WP:SNOW is judged on the likely certainty of the outcome, not the heads counted. Do we really think that some VP subpage, well attended by arbs and admins and serving as some locus of discourse was going to get deleted at MfD? Not "do you want it to be deleted" or "would Wikipedia be better off if it didn't exist" (because the existence or non-existence of that page won't force people to write or not write articles, BTW), but "is it reasonable to see this being deleted?" The answer to that is no. It isn't reasonable to see this being deleted at an MfD. As such, avoiding 5 days of meta-debate is beneficial. Though arguably it was also certain that the decision would be appealed, so 5 days of meta-debate was also unavoidable. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Protonk (talk) 23:32, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse generally per Protonk (assuming that "Endorse" means "do not reopen":) ). Quite apart from the procedural issues addressed by Protonk, reopening the MFD would provide more opportunities for drama by people arriving to accuse other people of causing drama by supporting the existence of the page. Rather than constructing a recursive drama-function, wide participation and a resounding expression of support for the current Arb's would be more convincing in demonstrating that the page was not needed in the first place. Follow that? Franamax (talk) 05:37, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep closed (without endorsing, if that's possible). Poor judgment, but reopening would only serve to create more drama. Stifle (talk) 09:58, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse The last 11 !votes were all keeps. The delete !votes had been exhausted before closure. Ruslik (talk) 10:47, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- endorse That was always going to snow. ViridaeTalk 10:59, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- don't reopen. There's enough drama around here already, and deleting the page out from under an active discussion in order to squelch the discussion underway wouldn't succeed in actually squelching the discussion, it would just add fuel to the fire and get the villagers to break out their pitchforks. --Alecmconroy (talk) 12:26, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Reopen. DRV exists to examine the process of the AFD. Clearly, User:Sceptre overstepped in closing this debate at such an early hour. The closer notes that this was about vote counting which is not what AFD is. So, based on the closer's misunderstanding and the failure of a true WP:SNOW situation, I think we should re-open and allow the case to run its course. JodyB talk 12:31, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse closure When does an administrator make the conscious decision to see just how much they can create a drama shitstorm? I don't know, but whenever that day happens, they need to be desysoped. Vodello (talk) 13:37, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse closure Per Protonk, who made the excellent point that even the Arbs, who are said to be attacked, are participating. Too often we assume that any on-wiki review or endorsement sort of process is Inherently Evil, but when the subjects themselves--and no, it does not require all of them to support it--participate, it's quite fine. All that aside, re-opening the MfD will be more drama, and 70% was snow country in any event. rootology (C)(T) 14:15, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Keep closed per Stifle. --Kbdank71 18:12, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

- Endorse closure per Mailer Diablo. Orderinchaos 20:05, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse. Not only per above, but also pointing out that the early closure probably spared us an extra 4 days of drama. Wizardman 20:34, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
Publicity Stunt: The Art Of Noise
Publicity Stunt: The Art Of Noise (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (restore | cache | AfD) Jklein212 (talk) 20:46, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
This page Publicity Stunt: The Art Of Noise was deleted stating that is was "spam." I spoke with RHworth: User_talk:Jklein212. I did post it wrong the first several times, even under the wrong title by accident at first. I am new to wikipedia so I apologize -- but I did read many articles about what to do and what not to do. I feel I followed these instructions closely. My page is about a book that has already received major news headlines to millions of readers, through notable sources, and is not by any means an "advertisement." I ask that you please reconsider this deletion and allow publicity stunt the art of noise to post as many people will find this article helpful. If I did something incorrectly, please either edit that part or delete that part or let me know how to fix it instead of deleting the entire page. As you can see, it has had major news coverage, as I said before, including AOL, The Insider, SOHH, BET, Essence magazine and the author his a very notable publicist within the music industry, as he also belongs to the Associated Press. jklein212 (Talk | 21:15, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- sustain unrewriteable G11 promotional copy for a promotional book, admitted to be for a promotional purpose just above. and any possible article about the book be deleted as a nonnotable subject--the major news coverage is incidental mentions. The author may be a notable PR person but he ought to learn the requirements of this medium and not try the impossible. DGG (talk) 04:41, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse my deletion. Spam for non-notable book. — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 08:49, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

User:Guido den Broeder/Wikipedia, the Social Experiment ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs) (restore | cache | MfD))
A page like there are many in Wikipedia, including the user spaces of the commenting users. It violates no policies. There was no consensus to delete, but an admin who has been angry with me various times deleted it regardless. Guido den Broeder (talk, visit) 18:16, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Oh yes, this screams bad faith: "...an admin who has been angry with me various times deleted it regardless." Can you please find a citation or substantive content to verify that poor acquisition? In fact, I can't recall having any prior interactions with you, Guido, because I have purposefully kept myself out of the dramas that you seem to induce on an almost weekly basis.
- This edit summary is also in bad faith, in regards to the MFD. seicer | talk | contribs 18:39, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse deletion - The 'study' is the result of long-term deliberate disruption; no need to validate it by leaving it here. // roux 18:35, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Comment I think that we have to ask ourselves a simple question here: Is this true? If it is true, then I'd be inclined to support an indefinite block of the remaining account. If it is not true, then the deletion is correct. Personally, it looks like a load of juvenile twaddle to me. CIreland (talk) 18:42, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Comment - he claims it's true, and there's no way to prove otherwise. I'd absolutely support a community ban, but I think the consensus at ANI when it was brought up was not to ban. // roux 18:47, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- The original posting on the ANI was by Guido (here) and there was only one person who endorsed a ban in any formal way; I would venture that it wasn't a good place, or starting point, for a ban discussion (IMO). Carcharoth's follow-up thread dropped into the archive without a ripple. And as a general comment, any "endorse deletion" and "endorse undeletion" !votes on this page should probably be counted as well (but not twice if, as I did, an editor !voted on both pages). WLU (t) (c) Wikipedia's rules:simple/complex 20:26, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse Deletion - your reasoning is that an admin you have never had interaction with had a vendetta against you? --Smashvilletalk 18:49, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- I have made no such claim. But if you must know, Seicer had me blocked in January and reverted my edits to Chronic fatigue syndrome[8]. The block was found unjustified. Guido den Broeder (talk, visit) 19:12, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- I noted that you were well over WP:3RR and reported it to the noticeboard, but did not do the blocking. You were blocked by Tariqabjotu for 40 hours, which was then lengthened to 48 hours. If you were to take into account all that have commented against you in the past, or have taken action against you in the past Guido, we would have very few "uninvolved" administrators left on this project. Your block log is quite scary. seicer | talk | contribs 19:19, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- "(An) admin who has been angry with me various times deleted it regardless". Did you forget what you wrote in your nom here? --Smashvilletalk 19:23, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- I have made no such claim. But if you must know, Seicer had me blocked in January and reverted my edits to Chronic fatigue syndrome[8]. The block was found unjustified. Guido den Broeder (talk, visit) 19:12, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse deletion for all reasons cited in original MFD; the page disparages wikipedia in a way that does not help it, the truth of the statements are questionable and unproveable, and would not be a valid form of commenting on the project anyway. Anyone else who wants to review wikipedia as part of an external project does so in the open. It wasn't done here, the report can't help anything. The content exists anyway and wouldn't require a stand-alone page anyhow. WLU (t) (c) Wikipedia's rules:simple/complex 18:56, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Weak endorse. Defensible application of WP:UP#NOT, although I fail to see why this particular instance of soapboxing is especially objectionable. Sandstein 19:11, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Because he spent over a year, in tandem with other people, disrupting WP to get to his 'results'. WP:DENY seems applicable. // roux 19:13, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Comment Can you please address the issue of lack of consensus, rather than to do the MfD and the mud-slinging all over again? Guido den Broeder (talk, visit) 19:16, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- There is no lack of consensus. --Smashvilletalk 19:22, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: Does "Wikipedia, the Social Experiment" by the United Nations even exist Guido? seicer | talk | contribs 19:23, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- No, Seicer, such a report does not exist. Please get the reference right. Guido den Broeder (talk, visit) 20:06, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Comment from an uninvolved admin: I count seven Delete !votes, including the nominator, to five Keep !votes on the original MfD. One of the keep !votes suggested simply moving the text to a subsection on Guido's userpage. Hardly consensus in either direction. Hermione1980 19:34, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Deletion debates are not votes. The fact that the user's "experiment" was disrupting Wikipedia definitely weighed a lot into this argument. --Smashvilletalk 19:41, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- I'm aware they're not votes (hence the !vote designation). The only reason I included that was for summary purposes. Everyone here is more than likely aware that there are other factors to consider when discussing deletion/undeletion. Hermione1980 19:47, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Please. It's not my experiment, only my report. Guido den Broeder (talk, visit) 19:59, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Which does not exist. I've done quite a few queries for a report from the United Nations on Wikipedia, and have come up with nothing. seicer | talk | contribs 20:01, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Which you've been provided a copy of. --Smashvilletalk 20:01, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, Seicer, now we are getting to the true motive for this quick deletion. Guido den Broeder (talk, visit) 20:03, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- I'm not Seicer? --Smashvilletalk 20:11, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

- Endorse deletion - appears appropriate to me, policy and consensus considered appropriately by closing admin. Orderinchaos 21:01, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse per well reasoned close. --Kbdank71 21:10, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse deletion - policy does not allow this sort of screed and/or non-existent "UN Report" in userspace. As an uninvolved lurker, I suggest that discussion be initiated at the proper location as to whether or not Guido has exhausted the patience of the community. I've disagreed with several of Seicer's administrative actions, but he was absolutely correct in this instance. Skinwalker (talk) 21:15, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse - removal of self-feeding drama generators is a good thing. Seicer made a good call here. Tony Fox (arf!) 21:25, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Endorse no compelling arguments given as to how the process broke down. Protonk (talk) 23:33, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

- Overturn Invalid deletion reasons, as follows:
- "in the interests of keeping drama to a minimum,: since when is that a reason for deleting anything?
- "user page resembles a soapbox" a considerable litattitude is allowed for expression of views in user space.
- "no positive relation to Wikipedia" it certainly does bear a relation to Wikipedia , and if its negative criticism that is just a valid a sue as positive.
- "blog for personal opinions" personal opinions about Wikipedia are arppropriate content for user space.
I do not in the least agree with guido, but the deletion is a clear violation of NOT CENSORED. We follow NPOV about the outside world in article space, and in WP space that applies to views about us as well. DGG (talk) 06:22, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- 'keeping drama to a minimum' falls squarely within 'Do not disrupt Wikipedia to prove a point', it seems to me. Bollocks about some alleged 'UN report' or 'experiment', even more so. --CalendarWatcher (talk) 06:54, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
DeleteEndorse. A rather creative way fighting to include one's own POV into articles by claiming authority, but unwanted nonetheless. --CalendarWatcher (talk) 06:54, 18 December 2008 (UTC)- This is a deletion review; !votes should be "endorse", "keep deleted", "overturn", "undelete", etc. Stifle (talk) 10:03, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- My, you rather seem to have appointed yourself protector of this page. Correction made. --CalendarWatcher (talk) 14:20, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- This is a deletion review; !votes should be "endorse", "keep deleted", "overturn", "undelete", etc. Stifle (talk) 10:03, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- On the deletion review page, there is an instruction "Deletion Review is to be used where someone is unable to resolve the issue in discussion with the administrator (or other editor) in question. This should be attempted first – courteously invite the admin to take a second look". I haven't noticed this discussion taking place. While I'm aware that some users consider this an optional step, I would appreciate if the nominator could please explain why he omitted it (or, if there was a discussion that I missed, point it out)? Stifle (talk) 10:03, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- strongly endorse deletion- deranged ramblings of someone who I thought should already be indef blocked for POV pushing and general 'illness', which he himself says is being exacerbated by the project, because on this issue a lot of people here's opinions are too much like those of the real world for him to handle.

- Overturn A7 speedy deletion. The article claimed notability for its subject through, e.g., awards received. Sandstein 19:13, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Overturn last A7 deletion. The other two speedies look to me to have been reasonable but I agree with Sandstein that the final version did make some assertions of importance. Davewild (talk) 21:46, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
- Overturn though itwill still need considerable editing. DGG (talk) 06:29, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Overturn and list at AFD, per Sandstein. Stifle (talk) 10:04, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
- Overturn. Not all of those awards show notability, but the Addy's are such a major award that they are enough to establish notability. All of it is referenced, certainly that last one was a bad speedy. - Mgm|(talk) 10:39, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
