"It doesn't matter if they don't meet WP:GNG" it perhaps the worst kind of advice you can give ''anyone'', as it's simply not the case.

Kuki 久喜
Hi, there.
The page itself I thought was quite encyclopedic, there is no mention of the artist being "Good" or "Bad" and the page itself does not contain any references to gigs or shows.
It simply lists works that has been done on a notable source
Just so I can figure it out ? could you please point out what it was that made you go for a speedy deletion — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kukikult (talk • contribs) 14:53, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Hi Barney, I just started the page a few minutes ago and will work on it over the next few days to fill it with content to fullfill the wikipedia critiera. So far do you have any specific issue with the article? ~~raid008

Dear Barney, I have created a page for German Pellets that were marked today for speedy deletion by you. I am wondering what I can do to make it suitable for Misplaced Pages? It is not intended for promotional or advertising and fact based. I can edit the page and try to make it informative, but remove what you feel is promotional and any suggestions are welcome.

Dear Barney, you deleted this page, I was going to add more content, like the following (my software hasn't produced the results, but I wanted to start the article, is it ok?:
Most Cited Universities methodology
The Most Cited Universities research is a project which has been developing by Luca Boscolo. It provides an indication of research impact measured by total citations.
Total Citations for a particular university or institution is calculated by the following simple step process:
- Get all the paper for a particular university or institution
- For each paper sums the citations number for year: 2011, 2012
The database used for the calculation is Scopus
The process also produces citations number for a particular area (as identified in Scopus), for a specific university
The study will highlight the highest cited articles
Results for 2012

Thanks for the Notification
Dear Barney, Earlier I created a page for MarkMeets that has been marked for speedy deletion. I can assure you it was not intended for promotional and was only to illustare a quick over-view of the UK entertainment site (as I noticed there are sources/links to the site already on WIkipedia).
Please do edit the page to meet wiki's requirements. Thanks IanYoung2013 — Preceding unsigned comment added by IanYoung2013 (talk • contribs) 17:55, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Barney the barney barney. Thank you for the notification about the deletion discussion. I'll be sure to contribute to the conversation soon. Jcmeberhard (talk) 20:25, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
- I appreciate the thoughts and advice. I'm not a physician, but I study medical sociology and do qualitative research about medical writing and research. Amit Mahipal would be considered a public LP, in that he is well known in the medical community for his articles which have changed standard of care specifically regarding lymph node dissection. I did not do a very good job emphasizing this fact in the article though, and I can see how his notability would be in question. I'm working on gathering better sources to demonstrate the impact his work has had on daily medical practice, etc. I know a lot of doctors and med students, and I'm trying to only include information which that audience would find useful when they do encyclopedic searches on particular topics and people. However, this is of course a skill I will need to continue to hone. Meanwhile, it's good to know that Misplaced Pages needs more articles on medical notable persons. Maybe that's something I can tackle in the future. Right now, I'm really focusing on Oncology and EBM, since it syncs well with my own work right now, and is helping me organize my research.
- Again, I really appreciate your criticism and feedback. It's helpful to know where I need to improve my writing for the good of the community. And, it was kind of you contacted me individually. Hopefully we can continue the discussion on the deletion page. 72.184.134.22 (talk) 14:06, 7 August 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.184.134.22 (talk)

My page was very well sourced and truthful. No one was disparaged. I use Misplaced Pages pages for a class I teach involving local history.

Truth In Action Ministries
Good afternoon,
We were formerly known as Coral Ridge Ministries (CRM) and CRM did have a page on Wiki, but at some point this page was redirected to Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church. We are now known as Truth In Action Ministries (we only changed our name) and we are not affiliated with Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church. That's why I created the page Truth In Action Ministries, to 1) Clear up the confusion between us and the church and 2) to provide some information about our Ministry as we did on the CRM page.
If you would be so kind and give me some time to get more info on our page and maybe give me some guide lines as to what NOT to post, that would be highly appreciated.
May God Bless you and thank you for your time.

List of Fellows of the Royal Society elected in 2001
Why have you included in the Foreign Members section a list of names of people who are all normal Fellows and not "Foreign Members"? Being born abroad does not make you a Foreign Member if the birthplace is within the British Commonwealth (eg Canada). Foreign Members are normally Americans or Europeans.
Conversely, Alexei Alekseyevich Abrikosov IS a Foreign Member but is listed under Fellows. Now I'm totally confused.

Too-speedy speedy tagging
Hi. Thanks for patrolling new pages, but don't be too quick off the mark: you tagged Ali asghar with db-a3 in the same minute it was created. Newbies often put in a word or two and press "Save page" to see how it looks: it is discouraging and BITEy if a speedy template immediately pops up. Nothing was lost in this case, as it happens, because the author was not discouraged: he went on to create Ali Asghar (Pakistan) about an A7-worthy student; but in principle, for A1 and A3 you should wait at least 10 - 15 minutes to see if more appears - see {{uw-hasty}}.

Speedy deletion nomination of DePaul Catholic High School Field
Hello NYCWikiKid,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged DePaul Catholic High School Field for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Barney the barney barney (talk) 19:25, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Barney! Thanks for contacting me. I appreciate that. I was reading through the tag, and responded to the matter there. Basically, the article is of importance because it acknowledges a venue that has clear association with a professional team that plays in the second division league of Women's US Soccer. The facility has held important conference matches for the league, and has been in use by the team for more than four years. This in itself is an account and merit for awareness. Also, with view towards the term "encyclopedia", a conventional, tangible twenty to fifty book collection is selective with information due to the limitation it can provide. Misplaced Pages surpasses all molds of what an encyclopedia was constrained to - space. Wiki is the World's encyclopedia, and in it the range of human knowledge that can be written is boundless, as long as the information is presented in a descriptive and substantiated form. I totally am on board to help out. If you feel that we can work on some pages together, let me know. Cheers NYCWikiKid (talk) 20:54, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Barcelona Rentals Vacation
I am trying to do "barcelona rentals vacation" but you didn't give no even a few minutes to edit and completed. It seems like you was waiting for me to spend hours on the work to then delete it!. This is my first article and I was trying to do my best, but again, you didn't let me do it. You know life is too short to spend hours trying to do something nice and a malicious person came after and remove everything. sorry if it seems like an advertisement I was trying my best and I can still perfect it to wikipedia policies but you didn't give me the chance. god help you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frante Camar (talk • contribs) 15:37, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages talk:Articles for creation/Amit Naik
Again, your knowledge of how WP:PROD works needs improving - this is not eligible as it is not in article mainspace. Please stop adding PROD tags to articles that are not eligible. GiantSnowman 22:07, 23 August 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for the Notification
Hello Barney, This is not a promotional topic. I am just writing about one of the first ecommerce shop in Manipur. More contents will be added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Williamgurumayum (talk • contribs) 08:41, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Mokenge P. Malafa (2nd nomination)
I gave the proper reasons. If you had just expanded the rationale when asked, it would have been easier to remove this very dubious article. DGG ( talk ) 16:52, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
Thanks a lot
Dear Barney,
Thanks a lot. Its such a relief and believe me I wouldn't even think of such pages. I am only interested in contributing my knowledge to scientific articles.

I'm not an academic, how do I get into that? Have you seen my software to get into scopus...there's nothing like that out there...Luca boscolo (talk) 17:08, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
Klavier Music Productions
Unbelievable. You're not supposed to nominate a page for deletion while it's in production, as the increation notice clearly says. Further, it hardly qualifies for a promotion piece, but we'll leave it for others to decide. --Unicorn Tapestry 21:36, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

AirMenu
Dear Barney, I received your notification for the deletion of my article about AirMenu. Please inform me about the alterations you think I should do to meet the wiki requirements. I don't think it is promotional, since there's no clear praise about the company, just straight information about it's activity and features. I'll wait for your suggestions about how I can improve the article — Preceding unsigned comment added by Miguelalvesc (talk • contribs) 10:04, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
Declined speedy
Just wanted to let you know I declined your speedy deletion tag at Campus Disorientation. This article appeared to more about a neologism than a specifically organized event. I was therefore of the opinion that it did not meet WP:A7. If you still believe the subject is not notable, I suggest making an AfD nomination (as the creator of the article has objected to the deletion on the talk page). Thanks!

Regarding speedy delete of Onarbor page and Tim R Peterson page
Hi Barney, I created the page, Onarbor, and would like to fix it such that it will be acceptable to be published on Misplaced Pages. Onarbor.com is my website and company. Can you explain why you deleted it?
thanks, Tim Peterson User:Trpeters1 —Preceding undated comment added 15:01, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for your explanation on why you recommended Onarbor for delete. Can this page simply remain idle on Misplaced Pages until it becomes "notable" enough? Trpeters1 (talk) 15:47, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
who was who
I don;t think we have usually accepted it as a source showing notability I think the physicians you're writing about are probably notable, but it needs more to show it. DGG ( talk ) 15:52, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
- I had come here to comment on St Clair Thomson (who I had been planning to write an article on - I noticed a redlink go blue). I will try and help expand that stub at some point, as I know he is notable. I suspect many of the others are as well, but it does help to try and write a bit more when starting articles like that. Barney, while I am here can I ask if you put WikiProject templates on the talk pages? Others will do it eventually, but {{WPBiography}} is useful on biographical articles. Carcharoth (talk) 22:52, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
Biographical articles
Hi there. Not sure if you saw the above note, but wanted to drop off another note as I noticed that the article I mentioned above (St Clair Thomson) had been moved (by another editor) from Sir St Clair Thomson to St Clair Thomson. I then noticed that you had recently moved several articles to titles starting 'Sir'. I think putting 'Sir' in article titles is generally avoided, even if the 'Sir' is being used to disambiguate the name. The article naming and guidelines are not terribly clear on this point, so maybe it needs to be discussed somewhere suitable. What do you think? The other thing I wanted to say is that I'd be very happy to help expand some of these stubs that you've started. I wanted to check first if you had plans to expand any of them?

Re: TED refs
I saw that, too. It's the same article with a different (short) opening paragraph. Vzaak (talk) 11:12, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
Our new friend
Our new friend has now admitted that he's here to do "a little field study", which is exactly what I suspected and brought to his attention earlier. It looks like "trolling 2.0". I suppose waiting is still the most practical option. At least I know not to engage him. Vzaak (talk) 12:50, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
Re: Consistency
I completely understand, but I want the opening to be unassailable reference-wise. Blackmore is the only one that actually brings up the point, that I am aware. Her argument focuses on telepathy itself, and she doesn't even mention "morphic resonance". We can't go from "telepathy is inconsistent" to "morphic resonance is inconsistent" due to SYNTH. Were you able to find the text of the Wolpert article "A matter of fact or fancy"?
Re public understanding, it seemed at the time natural to tie that to media appearances. But thinking about this again, I agree it should go in the lead, especially now that there is a "Media Appearances" section with info on TEDx. Vzaak (talk) 13:47, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry, it looked like Wolpert was a stray reference. "Reproducible evidence" has been there a while, and survived your earlier batch of edits. Vzaak (talk) 20:00, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Sir Hector MacLennan may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 ""s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

CakeMail
Hi Barney the barney barney,
Speedy deletion nomination of CakeMail
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on CakeMail, requesting that it be deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Misplaced Pages:FAQ/Business for more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here.
---
I've reviewed the CakeMail article and ensured that all links are properly quoted and that proper chronology is respected in the History section. Please advise if there's anything else I missed in regards to correcting the issues.
Thanks!

I am interested in why you restored 8 links to disambiguation pages instead of solving them. The Banner talk 22:36, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
Notability
This shows a deep and troubling lack of understanding of how notability works.
WP:NFOOTBALL doesn't mean "basically means anyone who's ever played any sort of competitive sport", it refers to players who have competed in a fully-professional league or at senior international level in an official game.
"It doesn't matter if they don't meet WP:GNG" it perhaps the worst kind of advice you can give anyone, as it's simply not the case. NFOOTBALL is reliant upon GNG, and there is significant consensus at AFD that technically meeting NFOOTBALL (i.e. playing in 1 match) but failing GNG does not make you notable, see see Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Oscar Otazu, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Vyacheslav Seletskiy, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Aleksandr Salimov, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Andrei Semenchuk, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Artyom Dubovsky, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Cosmos Munegabe, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Marios Antoniades, Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Scott Sinclair (footballer born 1991) and Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Fredrik Hesselberg-Meyer (2nd nomination) amongst others.
If you need any help or advice with regards to notability please let me know, I'm happy to assist. GiantSnowman 16:23, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
