You forgot to delete this subpage when you deleted the main module. — {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 03:15, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
- Pppery, next time don't tell me - just slap {{db-subpage}} on it. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:42, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
Module pages are written in Lua and not parsed as wikitext, so you can't just add a CSD tag to one. — {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 15:48, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
- I think you could have fixed the situation by re-creating module talk:HtmlBuilder/testcases with content such as:
{{db|sub-page of deleted page. NB. please delete the module: page as well as this one}}
- But I have to confess myself confused: I cannot see how module talk:HtmlBuilder/testcases got into CAT:CSD and thus came to my attention: the most recent edit to the page was in 2013 and a speedy tag was never applied to it.
- On a slightly different issue, I recently deleted module:Diacritics/testcases which did have a working speedy tag on it. I am hoping RexxS will be able to tell me how he told the system "this page is in the module: namespace but it is to be parsed as wikitext". — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:06, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
- That would be down to Pppery. Having gained consensus for reducing the severity of the edit filter that used prevent this, they moved a page that I had created in the [Module talk:] namespace (where the content model is 'wikitext') to the [Module:] namespace (where the usual content model is "Scribunto"). Sometimes this can be useful, so I don't object to the principle; my only objection was to moving a page where I was the sole author without discussing it with me first. For what it's worth, any admin can directly change the page content model at will. -- RexxS (talk) 23:27, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
- RexxS, thank you for pointing me to Special:ChangeContentModel, something I had never noticed before. But Scribunto is not one of the options offered by Special:ChangeContentModel! It looks as though I could change the model for a page in module: namespace to something other than Scribunto but I could not change it back to Scribunto! — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:31, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
- You might have noticed 'Page information' in the toolbox on the left, where one of the pieces of information is the page content model, which is a quick way of checking what the content model is for a page. I hadn't noticed that Scribunto is missing as an option at Special:ChangeContentModel, presumably that means you have to move the existing page without leaving a redirect, create a new page in Module: space (as that will have content model as "Scribunto") and then copy the contents into the new page. Finally clean up the edit histories if needed. What a rigmarole! --RexxS (talk) 17:43, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
Chas. Floyd Johnson
Hello Mr. Haworth, I see you deleted my page for "Chas. Floyd Johnson" today. Yes, the original version of the page was tagged for deletion but I worked hard to resolve the issues. I got the Copyvios score down to 4.8%. The only things flagged were things like "born in Camden, New Jersey", or his job titles, or place names where he worked or studied. This is my first contribution from scratch and would appreciate it if you would consider restoring the page, or at least giving me permission to try again. Also, any guidance/advice you could provide me is also appreciated. Cheers, Brian Saunders Bksaunders (talk) 21:58, 1 March 2019 (UTC)

Deletion Self-Sovereign Identity
Please recover Self-Sovereign Identity article. This article is not about something that was invented by me. As I have replied in the reply "to speedy deletion" this topic is very well explored, it has a big digital footprint on the internet, it has big active live community that explores and publishes about this topic. Please see tag #SSI on Twitter, as well as other links: https://medium.com/learning-machine-blog/identity-and-digital-self-sovereignty-1f3faab7d9e3 https://ssimeetup.org/ http://www.lifewithalacrity.com/2016/04/the-path-to-self-soverereign-identity.html https://www.moxytongue.com/2016/04/id2020-sovereign-authority.html Also! please note that this article has a draft page that was created 1 month earlier before I published my page. I have not seen the draft when I published mine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kantakuziv (talk • contribs) 17:28, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
- A number of versions restored including the hopeless waffle by user:OYOdev. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:06, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
RHaworth reposting call to restore the page, that I wrote on the user's page that proposed it for deletion. Cabayi, the references to two blog posts about the concept of Self-Sovereign Identity were provided because they are the oldest references about this concept that I can find on the Internet. They also describe it very well. I am OK to add references like this one - https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/16/magazine/beyond-the-bitcoin-bubble.html (the one mentioned in the draft by user Daniel H Hardman). We can use Daniel H Hardman's draft, but I like mine more as its explains Self-Sovereign Identity directly using the first principles. His by contrasting it to the usual digital identities. Please, help to restore the page so community that explores this concept figure out the best way to write about it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kantakuziv (talk • contribs)
- All your edits are live. So what is preventing the community that explores this concept figuring out the best way in draft space? Please reply. In fact since the community don't seem to have any concrete proposals, I suggest that the best approach is to add the subject as a section in the digital identity article. If that is accepted, a redirect can be created at self-sovereign identity. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:31, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
RHaworth I do not see my edits. Self-Sovereign Identity section in Digital Identity article already exist. Although it is vague and a bit misleading. I will definitely correct it using inputs from my original article and Daniel's draft. Please, show me how I can access my old article. Regarding writing in draft and then validating it with community, this just adds unnecessary hurdles IMO. It is much more motivating and engaging to publish life and incrementally improve it. Is it not the wiki way of doing things? I do not see what problem is here. Do you have suspicion that I am pushing my concept? I think we established that this is not the case. It is also not a brand or a product of some company. This is a long time emerging concept, that is becoming more and more defined. Why can't we write about it. Why these additional hurdles? IMO, we trying to write ideal article, instead of just writing, editing, adding upon. — Kantakuziv (talk) 17:41, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
- You do not {{ping}} me on this page. "I do not see my edits" - do the phrases "user contributions" and "edit history" suggest anything to you? I am extremely dubious about whether this topick is worthy of an article in its own right. I therefore want a draft reviwer to give their opinion. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:29, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
@RHaworth: "I do not see my edits" - found them in user contributions; as for "edit history" it does not work on Self-Sovereign Identity page. "Separate article" - this topic definitively deserves an article of its own. But, fine I'll write in the section of Digital Identity first. As for writing in draft - I do not see what the point is - who will see it? Who will be the draft reviewer? — Kantakuziv (talk) 11:11, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
@RHaworth: FYI I re-wrote Self-sovereign identity section in digital identity article. — Kantakuziv (talk) 13:11, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
- I repeat: you do not use {{Reply to|RHaworth}} on this page - I am alerted automatically. You would use that tag if you were writing on another talk page and wished to alert me.
- "Edit history does not work" - ridiculous! If you are referring to this history, it works perfectly: it tells you that there are no edits on this title but gives a clear indication that there used to be edits and gives a clue to where they are now. But why are you looking there when your contributions show that you should be looking at this history?
- Once you click on "submit your draft for review" the article will be seen (eventually!) by a draft reviewer who will usually be an editor who specialises in doing that job. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 14:24, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
OK, I thought you wanted to be pinged specifically. If you are pinged anyway, what difference does it make, if I do it too. Anyway! I'll write draft. Let it be! "...gives a clue to where they are now" if there are clues - I cannot find them. As for my user contributions - as I wrote I found history there already. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kantakuziv (talk • contribs) 16:30, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
- Kantakuziv, cannot find clues! What did I do to Self-Sovereign Identity with a time stamp of 2019-03-03t17:36:44 (if you cannot see the seconds - it is the second of two actions I did at 17:36)? Please reply. Indeed if I had been talking about Draft:Self-Sovereign Identity, I would not have said "gives a clue": I would have said "tells you".

- Annalea, the phrase is "shooting yourself in the foot". Twice you have re-submitted the draft with the original speedy delete tag in place so as soon as you submitted it, it popped up at CSD - pointless. More importantly, it is pointless to re-submit the same text if it still contains copyvios. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 14:24, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

James Hilleary
Dear Fellow Grumpy Old Man: Oopsie. I DO own the data that I used in the site you deleted. :-) . You removed my article about the artist James Hilleary because I had engaged in unambiguous copyright infringement. You are concerned that I took the text from http://www.jameshilleary.com/gallery_reviews.htm. I understand why you might think that I copied the text, since jameshilleary.com and my draft article quote the same reviews. But I did not take the text from the jameshilleary.com website. I am the executor of Hilleary's estate. I have dozens of newspapers and correspondence and other original materials that I used to draft that article. BUT I understand that I might have violated Wiki standards by quoting several paragraphs of a couple of the newspaper articles. I would like to be able to fix that by removing the quotes. Could you please email the article to me so that I can fix that problem (and, um, any other problems you might have noted!)? Thanks so much.

Express Zip Software
Hello, I am very new to writing and even newer to Wikipedia. I wanted to take my interest in desktop software to Wikipedia in order to share valuable user information with other software enthusiasts such as myself. When I first submitted this article, it was declined for basically not having enough third-party sources, which were described to me as reviews and testimonials that were more statements of opinion. I found it difficult to use those naturally in my article without directly quoting them, so that is what I did. Now, after my article was re-reviewed, it has been deleted completely. I am perfectly understanding that my use of sources and citations could use some help. I will always be a student in this sense and I am always eager to learn. However, when a student writes a paper and it needs improvements, it is usually handed back to them to fix. Not just thrown into the trash. I would be more than willing to continue working on my article to fix the issues that came about after my second submission. I have worked really hard on it and I hate to see it just get tossed without getting a chance to fix it. I feel like I really just didn't fully understand the rules or the consequences. I don't believe my article deserves to just be scrapped completely and I am hoping you will give me the chance to redeem it.
Is it possible to return it to the draft state and allow me to correct it? Am I correct in my understanding of why this article was deleted in the first place? At the very least, can I please have the content back? Thank you for your help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MellowModern (talk • contribs) 18:20, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello, Thank you for the additional information. My article was only a draft, though.

Nawlins
Request to restore Battle of New Orleans (2005). I saw this earlier today after Mr. Guye tagged it, I didn't think it merited the G10. I was in the process of declining it when you deleted it, and after thinking about it a bit I don't think it met the criteria for G10. It's a shit redirect, to be sure, but not a G10. More to the point, though, per the history, the previous content was merged elsewhere (and subsequently merged again) so if any of that material remains it's very possible we would need to keep this around for attribution purposes. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 22:47, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Paula Booth
Hi RHaworth, thanks for keeping Wikipedia tidy! Someone who came to one of my Wikthons created a draft page on Paula Booth - the editor emailed me and said they were a bit muddled on how to disentangle this draft from a previously drafted article, and that they created the draft before they were ready to try and separate out the two, but it took me a week to get to their email and try to help with the situation because things have just been busier than usual. By this time you had seen the draft and quite rightly deleted it for copyvio, but AGF and sheer confusion by a new editor I'm wondering if the draft could possibly be restored for the editor to fix the copyvio (with my help if required - things are calmer now and I can be speedier!)? Thanks for your consideration. Zeromonk (talk) 12:19, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
- Assuming that by "previously drafted article" they are referring to the drafts of Kairbaan Hodivala-Dilke and Victoria Cowling, they seem to have disentangled perfectly well.

I think they were referring to Kairbaan Hodivala-Dilke and Paula Booth, which do appear a bit messily interlinked at the top of the deleted draft you emailed over - thanks so much for sending the email (have had it set up for a couple of years now, but your walkthrough linked above is lovely and clear!), I very much appreciate you taking the time to do this.

Kantakuziv (talk) 13:06, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
I am kind of OK to have this mess of redirects now, because I understand it and intend to write and have the article about Self-Sovereign Identity published, which will resolve this redirect mess. But in the meantime, if there is someone else who would want to start writing it might have a hard time of figuring it out. Self-Sovereign Identity is commonly capitalized by the identity community on Twitter and on the Internet. But if we stick to more general rules and have Self-Sovereign Identity not capitalized on Wikipedia. Then we need redirect (clear links) from "Self-Sovereign Identity" page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-Sovereign_Identity) to "Self-sovereign identity" page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-sovereign_identity) and from there to "Draft:Self-sovereign identity" page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Self-sovereign_identity).

- What an horrible mess of naked URLs. Please study this edit carefully - apply one or other of these types of edits to the remaining eight naked URLs and I will reply. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:42, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
Deletion of Handball (wall game)
I notice that you deleted the page I created, Handball (wall game) because it duplicated pages already existing, American handball and Gaelic handball. I created that page to be used as a possible merger between the articles. The reason I created that page is because I wanted everyone to see what a possible merged article would look like. See the talk pages on American handball and Gaelic handball. - Sky Blu 2 (talk) 13:40, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hello, talk page stalker here. So you brought up the idea, got no support for it there, were opposed there, but decided to go ahead anyway. An entirely proper deletion, I'd say. (If you really wanted to show people, you could have done so in User:Sky Blu 2/Sandbox.) -- Hoary (talk) 13:45, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
Well, at the time, I hadn't got any feedback either way. That's why I created the page, to see what people thought. Sorry if I was supposed to use the sandbox to create sample pages. Maybe I'll create one there to see what everyone thinks.- Sky Blu 2 (talk) 15:25, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- Sky Blu 2, you are worse than Kantakuziv (see previous thread): you have been contributing for 10 years and still have not learned wikilinks! I have followed hoary's suggestion and created user:Sky Blu 2/sandbox for you. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:42, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
Water Search and Rescue
Hi Roger, Hope you are well and thank you for helping with our wiki page for wsart.org.uk and apologies for not fully understanding the copyright process on Wikipedia. I am in the process of amending the email that I need to send to Wikipedia to confirm that WSART authorise the use of our content and images on wikipedia. This is our first time working on wikipedia and I appreciate your quick help with reviewing our website. When we saw the 8 week timescales, I was not expecting any response for a while.
Once we have sent the email to Wikipedia, we will be able to use our exact wording from our current website. Will that then satisfy the copyright issue? I also did not keep a copy of the content I created, which I should have done. Did you keep a copy of it before flagging the copyright issue? It was only a small initial step for our wiki page so it will not be hard to re-create, just thought I would ask first. Anyhow, thank you again for reviewing our page and any help you can give us. Kind regards Darren Holloway Team Admin for WSART — Preceding unsigned comment added by Darrenseuk (talk • contribs) 18:28, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- It would be far better if you were to wait until someone who a) is capable of writing from scratch and b) has no CoI writes on this subject. But if you insist, note that if I see "we have grown the team" in a wiki article, I am liable to zap it instantly. Also the article stands no chance of survival without independent evidence of notability. Text emailed. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:08, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
James Devoy
Please check James Devoy article. I nominated it for the speedy deletion after a brief check on Google News. The author contacted me on my talk page asking to explain my actions. I have no intention to explain personal notability guidelines to the author, but I also feel that I could have been with my initial move, so decided to ask you as a more experienced editor to take a look at this. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 20:35, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- As any of my page stalkers will tell you, I am not one to give long replies to newbies so I don't blame your "no intention". But you could at least have provided a link to WP:BIO. Actioned. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:08, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
protected Draft:Shaun Yeo
Hi again RHaworth, Thank you for taking the time to re-review my draft:Shaun Yeo. It was recently Deleted due to Unambiguous copyright infringement which I thought referred to the last paragraph of the Draft text. I re-drafted it and deleted said paragraph then re-applied for a re-review. This has now (been deleted??) become a protected Draft. Could you please confirm where I went wrong again and maybe give me some advice in what do do to get this across the line. I appreciate the amount of time and effort people like yourself put into Wikipedia and newbies like myself must drive you a bit batty. Kind regards, LaRosa77 (talk) 03:18, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
- It would be far better if you were to wait until someone who a) knows not to start a page with an <h1> heading and end it with {{Source Wikipedia}} and b) has no CoI writes on this guy. But if you insist on trying again, start from a blank sheet and write it out of your head without looking at any other page. I can let you see the duplication detector report - read this. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:08, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
Deletion of Christina Tung Article
I just realized that the draft page for Christina Tung has been removed for the reason of unambiguous copyright infringement. I have sent an email regarding declaration of consent to permissions-en@wikimedia.org as I have the authorization from the copyright holder to use the text in the deleted page. Would you please restore the article. If not, what are the further steps I have to take in order for the article to be restored? Thank you for your kind attention.

Deletion of Beauty World Centre
Dear Mr Haworth, This is Windy Huang from Singapore. I noticed that you recently deleted my Wikipedia draft about the Beauty World Centre in Singapore. I would like to request for access to the work I did. This Wikipedia page is actually a school project assignment for the module called Singapore Urban History and Architecture, which teaches us about the relationship between urban history and architecture in Singapore. I have put in a lot of effort in researching and writing about the Beauty World Centre, as it is not a famous building in Singapore and there is insufficient information about it.
As I am new to Wikipedia, I am not very sure about the Copyright violations policies. I think maybe there are some words or sentences in my wiki page that are too similar to the source that I cited. If possible, I would like to make changes on them and paraphrase my text properly, so that I can repost this Wikipedia page.
I really hope that you can give me some suggestions on how to improve on my Wiki page as I really need it to complete my school assignment, at the same time, providing more useful information for others on this ordinary yet meaningful building. Thank you for your attention. :) Windy Huang — Preceding unsigned comment added by Windy HuangYuntong (talk • contribs) 12:44, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Avenu suggestions
Hi RHaworth, I saw that you marked the page I published, Avenu, for speedy deletion. Could you take a look at the draft in my sandbox when you have the chance? Thanks. Electricsity (talk) 16:47, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
- No, Largoplazo applied the speedy tag. I did the deletion. So what changes have you made to that version? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:17, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
Green Man (God)
I just want the text back. And also why did you delete it everything I said in that article was accurate. If it’s because it’s a Hoax I guess you have to delete the pages about christianity cause that is a hoax too. My email is “email redacted” — Preceding unsigned comment added by Officialgoodnight (talk • contribs) 17:25, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Victoria Li
Hi, RHowarth. I was a bit disappointed that the draft on Victoria Li was so quickly deleted. I appreciate there were some initial copyvios (due to newbie editors adding content during an editathon), but I was doing my level best to resolve those issues (substantially editing the offending sections just 10 minutes before you deleted the whole article), and to improve the article overall, but it does not appear this made any difference. It will be dispiriting for the new editors who contributed to that article earlier today to find their efforts to expand Wikipedia deleted. — Paul W (talk) 21:45, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
- Paul, you do not deserve it! You cannot even copy&paste my name and you failed to provide a link: draft:Vivian Li. Indeed you could not even get her name right! But I have restored your last edit. Some would say that the amount of copying shown by this report is unacceptable, please fix. I do not want to delve into fine detail of the states that triggered the copyvio detector but please give credit in the talk page to SMRussell14 (talk · contribs) who created the page and KatieERoberts (talk · contribs) who did several edits. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:23, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
Disappointed that you feel my efforts were deficient. As a Wikimedia UK volunteer, I was trying to encourage and support new editors (acknowledged in the article Talk page). I was racing against a speedy deletion (apologies for the typos - I had other things going on....), and now you tell me I am undeserving.... Paul W (talk) 22:54, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker)@Paul W: At this juncture, I feel the time is appropriate to remind RHaworth of this ANI thread and suggests he refrains from acting in a way that will result in another one. — Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:08, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- Paul, I can forgive your typos if you were in an hurry, I can understand your reluctance to use copy&paste: especially if one is a swift typist, switching to the mouse always slows things down. What I find more difficult to forgive is the fact that someone with fifteen years of editing and 34,000 edits to their credit does not automatically bracket any page title with [[]] when they refer to it.
- Ritchie333, I restored the page within three minutes of Paul's first message here. So what exactly did I do wrong? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 18:27, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- You told an established editor "You do not deserve it! You cannot even copy&paste my name and you failed to provide a link". See WP:AVOIDYOU. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 18:29, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- I consider that my remarks were well within the bounds of parliamentary language. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 18:41, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- So was everything Theresa May said here but didn't stop a storm in a teacup anyway. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 18:46, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- RHaworth - I appreciated your prompt response by a public thanks. I am only an occasional participant in AFC conversations and was unsure if wikilinking to a deleted draft article was appropriate - hence my failure to include the brackets. The Talk page response, however, did briefly make me consider my continued involvement with and enthusiasm for Wikipedia, but messages/requests from participants at yesterday's CRUK Editathon have helped me re-engage as they try to add new content.

Out of Bounds (2019 film) Draft
Hello RHaworth. The draft page for Out of Bounds has been removed citing unambiguous copyright infringement. An email regarding declaration of consent was sent to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org, just a few moments ago [Ticket#: 2019030710010908], as I have the authorization to use the image. I contested the violation through the proper and suggested channels; however, the draft page was deleted in the time it took to send the consent email. Please restore the draft page as it doesn’t violate or infringe upon any copyrights. Also, please find following the link to the deleted draft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Out_of_Bounds_(2019_film). Lastly, if you would be so kind as to approve the draft upon restoration as there was no actual copyright violation. Thank you in advance and your assistance is sincerely appreciated.

Roya Mahboob
Dear RHaworth, I translated the English Wikipeadia page of Roya Mahboob into Portuguese in view of the Wiki4Women celebration of the 2019 International Women's Day, but you deleted my contribution. This is my first time on Wikipedia, so I don't know if I did something wrong, but can you please assist me in retrieving the article and publishing, if possible, the translation of the original English article? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blherzog (talk • contribs)
- @Blherzog: I've restored this draft Draft:Roya Mahboob, as it wasn't "patent nonsense" as deleted, but a draft in progress to be moved to another Wikipedia. I haven't used the Portuguese Wikipedia myself but I'd be surprised if it didn't have a draft facility too. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 18:14, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- Re-instated in the proper place: pt:Roya Mahboob.
- Ritchie, see my hat note on the draft here. pt: does not appear to have a draft: namespace. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 18:27, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
