Info / Deletion Review

Hi Sandstein, I hope this is the right way to contact you! I have recently read about this deletion and am a bit surprised as the person in the article is a very important and known figure in the Wiccan community, as well as the writer of many books, who has lectured all over the world. I would be happy to provide you with further information, if possible / necessary, or to receive instructions on which changes/ info are exactly necessary in order to make sure the page can be considered for undeletion. Thank you in advance for you attention and for considering! Lsaille (talk) 15:54, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi, to recreate the article you need to demonstrate notability per our rule WP:GNG. If you want to attempt to do so, please see WP:THREE. Sandstein 07:03, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

Request to Restore Deletion of M. D. Parashar Wikipedia Page

Dear Sandstein,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request your assistance regarding the deletion of the Wikipedia page for M. D. Parashar, which was deleted on April 7, 2021. I recently discovered that the page was deleted, and I believe that there may have been a misunderstanding regarding its notability.

M. D. Parashar was my father, and I would like to see his Wikipedia page restored if possible. I have gathered additional reliable sources and references that establish his notability in his field of work, and I believe that the page can be improved to meet Wikipedia's guidelines.

I kindly request that you consider reviewing the situation and, if appropriate, guide me on the process of restoring the article or creating a new one that aligns with Wikipedia's standards. I understand the importance of adhering to Wikipedia's policies and am committed to providing verifiable and reliable information.

I greatly appreciate your time and assistance in this matter. Please let me know how I can proceed or if there are any specific steps you recommend taking.

Thank you for your attention to this request.

Sincerely,

Ayush.parashar27 Ayush.parashar27 (talk) 03:03, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted

Hi Sandstein, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Schwede66 08:30, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
