Close at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Espu Kola

Hi, is it possible to re-open this discussion? I don't think either the nomination nor the keep !votes engaged with the essential issue here, which is that this place quite possibly does not exist as an actual community. The reason being that Iran counts its census at locations called Abadi. These are simply census-taking locations, and need not correspond to actual villages/towns, and are essentially the Iranian version of census tracts (something explicitly excluded by WP:GEOLAND). Carlossuarez46 went through the 2006 Iranian census making these articles at an incredible fast rate, without bothering to check whether these places actually existed as anything more than a census-taking location. Many of them were obviously wells, pumps, farms, shops, bridges etc. based simply on their names. For example, on the day he created this article, he created at least 445 other articles also about Iranian "villages" (I say "at least" because at least 20,000 of the articles they created have since been deleted and the deleted articles won't show up in this search).

@FOARP: I've never reopened a deletion discussion before, and the original discussion (whether it violates GNG) has indeed been concluded. I figure that starting a new AfD, or bringing the article to DRV would be in order here. If I'm missing something here, and reopening deletion discussions is common practice, please let me know.

This wouldn't be a DRV case because this isn't an issue with your interpretation of the consensus in the discussion itself, which was correct. Deletion discussions can definitely be re-opened simply by reverting the close and inserting the entry linking to the discussion back in to that day's log page - the closer is allowed to reverse their close if they so choose (but obviously not too long after the close). I would open a new AFD but people tend not to like opening a new AFD right after one has closed - looks like not accepting the consensus - however I can do it if you prefer.

@FOARP: Alright, I have undone the close. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Espu Kola. JJPMaster (she/they) 18:34, 26 November 2024 (UTC)
Thanks JJP. There's a good chance no-one will respond but it's worth giving it a shot. FOARP (talk) 20:35, 26 November 2024 (UTC)

About the IP and the gentleman's agreement

Yeah, apparently, they were on to something. CoPilot found a few articles on The Gentleman's Agreement. [1] [2] [3]

It supposedly ended in 2004, though. But hey, I learned something! CyanoTex (talk) 02:59, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

Trouted

 

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted for: YOUR REASON HERE Starid (talk) 15:17, 17 November 2024 (UTC)


You're really funny haha. Nice to meet you. You're my new Wiki Inspo, watch out xx

NewPage Patrol Backlog - Help!

Hi, I was really excited to see my page get approved by AfC, however it has been waiting in new-page-patrol for 11 days… there is quite a large backlog. I wonder if you’d consider approving it - or at least flagging the backlog in new-page-patrol to the right administrators. - CC ScotsOats (talk) 17:36, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

@ScotsOats:   Done. And as for the backlog, we have a drive coming up in January to deal with that. JJPMaster (she/they) 17:41, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
Thank you so much! ScotsOats (talk) 17:47, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
