19:28 May 2, 2003 Zoe deleted "User talk:Zog/ban" (banned user) (Martin undeleted for acountability)
21:17 May 1, 2003 JohnOwens deleted "Aymara" (banned user trying to sneak back in) (Martin restored it as history only. full text: "A common language amongst highland Bolivians and Peruvians. Considered an official language by both nations.")
Upper Peru -- full text: "The name of Bolivia during Spanish colonial times."
deleted by JohnOwens for being written by a banned user, not listed on wikipedia:votes for deletion. I undeleted this and turned it into a redirect. Martin 09:18 May 15, 2003 (UTC)
22:42 May 13, 2003 172 deleted "Thats how a nigger goes" (a racist copyright violation by banned user Zog, much of whose work has already been deleted, added to the votes for deletion) (I undeleted this - it was a valid redirect)
10:00 Apr 27, 2003 Maveric149 deleted "Open Campaign" (Article by banned user 142.177 (content and links to disinfopedia prove this)
Open Campaign, however, talks about a Greenpeace definition, and fails the google test, so I think it can stay deleted. Martin 16:56 24 May 2003 (UTC)
17:42 31 May 2003 Kils deleted "User:Viking" (project of my children - deleted after threats)
This was a history only restore, so I did so. I'll mention it to user:Vikings and ask them if they want to list the page on VfD... Martin 00:25 2 Jun 2003 (UTC)
listed on VfD and deleted by consensus, following Vikings request. Martin 19:45 17 Jun 2003 (UTC)
17:41 31 May 2003 Kils deleted "User talk:Viking/ban" (project of my children - deleted after threats)
This was already undeleted by Brion.
listed on VfD and deleted by consensus, following Vikings request. Martin 19:45 17 Jun 2003 (UTC)
undeleted, listed on VfD. Martin 18:32 25 May 2003 (UTC)
08:10 17 Jun 2003 Kingturtle deleted Gaia theory (biology) (unnecessary redirect to Gaia theory (biology))
Right. That is a whole article that Kingturtle deleted. I hope it was a mistake from him, and that he will make the effort of undeleting it himself. Thanks. User:anthere
21:17 May 1, 2003 JohnOwens deleted "War of the Pacific" (banned user trying to sneak back in) full text: "The War of the Pacific was fought between Chile, Bolivia, and Peru. Chile gained substantial land, with rich nitrate fields from both of the other two countries."
This is a one-two sentence stub that I think could probably be restored. Martin 19:18 May 15, 2003 (UTC)
Agreed, I just re-created it by making it as a new page rather than an undeletion, just so we don't have "its" name attached to it. Just feels cleaner that way. If you really want the old history, I think it can still be undeleted and the histories will be merged, if I understand correctly? -- John Owens 09:03 26 May 2003 (UTC)
Undeleted, listed on VfD, now redeleted. Anyone for another round? -- Tim Starling 03:31 18 Jun 2003 (UTC)
There was no consensus to delete these, and I put some work into verifying these entries that is now lost. Please restore them. Martin 09:09 19 Jun 2003 (UTC)
I'll take that as a yes. (Note that Martin didn't see my comment above until after he wrote his). -- Tim Starling 13:37 19 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Yes on both counts :) Martin 08:55 20 Jun 2003 (UTC)
JT has deleted 2003 in sports and replaced it with the same content, apparently to remove DW/etc from the history. Is this strictly legal? Isn't there a requirement for authorship to be acknowledged? Evercat 12:16 28 Jun 2003 (UTC)
I've undeleted it so that a discussion can take place. Martin 15:45 28 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Yes, I'm afraid that the GFDL won't let us violate even DW's copyright. -- Toby Bartels 16:04 1 Jul 2003 (UTC)
Deleted with the comment "Dictionary definition, no indication of context: content was: 'A patera was a broad, shallow was a broad, shallow dish used for drinking, primarily in a ritual context such as a libation.'" This hardly counts as "no useful content" in my book. -- Oliver P. 01:15 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
I agree. Undeleted. -- Tim Starling 01:31 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
19:59 22 Jul 2003 172 deleted "Theories of imperialism" (Created by banned user, not linked to a single page, consisting of duplicate text borrowed from another article. )
08:13 16 Jan 2003 . . Hotlorp (wikify curzon)
10:27 4 Jan 2003 . . Vera Cruz ()
Created by banned user? Vera wasn't banned on January 4, and bans are not retroactive last time I checked. The other reasons are a pretty poor excuse for skipping VFD. This is really unacceptable. I've restored the history. -- Tim Starling 06:26 23 Jul 2003 (UTC)
history-only undeletion, please. I've not looked at the history, because of my limits. Martin 22:42, 16 Aug 2003 (UTC)
Undeleted by Angela. To be kept as a redirect?
It is clogging up the orphan page. Do we really need spelling mistakes? - user:Zanimum
? - It's not listed on Special:Lonelypages, if that's what you mean - redirects aren't listed on that page. Martin 19:31, 23 Aug 2003 (UTC)
Wikipedia Case User:RK - history of user talk:RK/ban, which still exists. Should be undeleted, and the history merged in the usual way. Wasn't listed on VfD, as far as I can tell. Martin 15:58, 22 Aug 2003 (UTC)
Thanks. Stevertigo, Anthere. Another serious of weird moves followed, inevitably, but at least EofT can't accuse anyone of a coverup. Martin 19:31, 23 Aug 2003 (UTC)
Could these be undeleted and blanked? I'd like to be sure I didn't say anything I would regret. Martin 15:39, 30 Jul 2003 (UTC)
Ahh, 172's come back and done this himself. Good. Martin 12:41, 1 Aug 2003 (UTC)
User talk:172/ban - Could the content please be restored to User:Nostrum/White board were it was originally posted. I moved it to the ban page. I'm sorry, that was inapproprate. However users are allowed to have what they want in their personnal subpages. - Efghij 02:53, 15 Aug 2003 (UTC)
I already moved it, thanks. He doesn't seem to be giving up, however. He's very persistent in his vandalism and trolling, which is evident on the Catholicism page history. 172 02:57, 15 Aug 2003 (UTC)
