Scrottball

hello i see one of my friends has put up a[REDACTED] article about scrottball

i also see that you deleted the page for certain reasons. I know his story was vulgar and that lots of stuff was fabricated but scrottball is a real sport that we invented a while ago and now we have a large community of people that know of/play scrottball. I am asking that if we put up a legitimate scrottball page with rules styles etc that you do not take it down because it would be really cool if the world can learn about and perhaps play our sport —Preceding unsigned comment added by 222.153.10.133 (talk) 06:09, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Please see the appropriate guideline, in this case Misplaced Pages:Misplaced Pages is not for things made up one day. It explains all the reasons why such a page should not exist, even if the subject indeed exists. Regards SoWhy 06:14, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

deleted entry

Hello! You deleted the entry I created - "11:12, 12 May 2009 SoWhy (talk | contribs) deleted "Youth and environment europe" ‎ (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion)" and I wanted ask why? There are many similar entries on Misplaced Pages about similar organisations or federations, like "European Environmental Bureau" - http://en.wikipedia.org/European_Environmental_Bureau, European youth forum - http://en.wikipedia.org/European_Youth_Forum, http://en.wikipedia.org/Taiga_Rescue_Network and more and they aren't considered as promotion or advertising, so why was my entry considered one? Thank you,

None of those entries use like like "our goals..." or try to actively promote the subject in question. Your article did and as such was deleted. Please review Misplaced Pages:Neutral point of view, Misplaced Pages:Spam and Misplaced Pages:Your first article for more information on how to and how not to write an article. Regards SoWhy 12:17, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Could you please explain further...

Could you please explain why you deleted the article about Paul Holden? Yes, I know you listed WP:A7. But Misplaced Pages:Notability (people)#Politicians lists professions which should be considered notable, and should be exempted from discussions over whether they are notable. It explicitly exempts:

"People who have held international, national or first-level sub-national political office, including members of a legislature and judges."

Holden is one of the judges on the United States Court of Military Commission Review.

Note, the article on one of his colleagues, Amy Bechtold, was nominated for deletion.

Could you please direct my attention to the place where the deletion of the Holden article was discussed? Geo Swan (talk) 02:41, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

The content of the article was:
{{Infobox Person
| name=Paul Holden
| age=16
| birth_place=Chelmsford
| education=  2003 - 2010
| work=
| a levels= Religous Studies, Information Technology, Biology, Geography
}}
A different Holden, quite obviously.
Cheers, Amalthea 03:25, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
OK. Thanks. Geo Swan (talk) 05:03, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
Sure, anytime. Amalthea 06:05, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
