Deleted Kucoin

Hello, I am trying to create an article on Kucoin and discovered it one was created and correctly deleted in 2018. So much has changed since then, the organisation has gained quite some coverage and I would love to create one now if you do not mind.

Regards Ghostfishing (talk) 05:15, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

How does that concern me? Sandstein 06:12, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

There's a protection log on the name or something and the template says to contact you before it can be created.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kucoin Ghostfishing (talk) 07:20, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

I recommend that you create a draft of the article with the new sources as references and submit it to WP:AFC. Sandstein 08:50, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

The template will not allow for draft creation. My draft keeps getting auto-deleted. Ghostfishing (talk) 09:03, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Try creating a draft at Draft:Kucoin. Sandstein 09:08, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

ah, Thanks Ghostfishing (talk) 09:14, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

done. kindly review. I'm not sure it has the afc template Ghostfishing (talk) 12:27, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

You'll have to wait for an AFC reviewer, sorry, the topic does not interest me. Sandstein 16:14, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

It's ok. Wonder if I can move it though? Ghostfishing (talk) 05:27, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

(by talk reader) @Ghostfishing: Why the rush? Chris Troutman (talk) 13:31, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Chris Throutmen, for adding the AFC template and no rush. Just learning.. Ghostfishing (talk) 16:13, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

@Ghostfishing, technically you can, but you risk it being speedy deleted as a recreation of a deleted article and the article protected against recreation. AFC is the safer but slower route. Sandstein 14:59, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Alright. Thanks Ghostfishing (talk) 16:09, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

Chloe Lewis (figure skater)

Hi, I saw your close of Articles for deletion/Chloe Lewis (figure skater) and was surprised there would be no good sources about a Youth Olympics medalist from the US. It didn't take long to find this strong profile in the Oregonian (and this briefer one in the Colorado Gazette). As neither source was mentioned in the AfD, would it be possible to reopen the discussion? Thanks for your time in advance. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 00:36, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi, we don't normally reopen deletion discussions, but you can recreate the article based on the newly found sources if you are confident that they establish notability. Sandstein 14:40, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

My impression is that relisting is a common result at WP:DRV, but fair enough. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 15:37, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Yes, but only before a discussion is closed. Sandstein 18:59, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Copy of The Pizza Meter article source

Hey mate, I saw that you recently deleted The Pizza Meter per the AfD discussion, but I was wondering if it would be possible for me to see the source of the deleted page? Either by moving the article to draftspace or to my sandbox, perhaps? I agree there isn't enough coverage for a Wikipedia article, but after April 12 the topic has had a resurgence online, so I was planning to write an article explaining the concept for RationalWiki where I think it would be more fitting. Cheers! Enix150 (talk) 04:05, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi, you can ask at WP:REFUND for another admin to do that - I don't restore deleted articles. Sandstein 14:42, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Recreated article being deleted

Hi, I want to recreated the article is being deleted by you in 2 years ago. The page name is Samsuri Arshad. (Normal rookie (talk) 01:13, 20 April 2024 (UTC))

Hi, you can recreate Samsuri Arshad if you are confident that you can provide sources that establish WP:GNG. Sandstein 14:43, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
