Shamsuddin Faridi Desai deletion

Dear Explicit, I see the decision was made to delete the article, Shamsuddin Faridi Desai. Was Bahauddin Dagar, a respected Rudra Veena player, consulted? How can I get you to undelete it? If I get all of the major Rudra Veena players to sign a petition, would you then undelete it? Vtranz (talk) 10:07, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Explicit, I received an email from Carsten Wicke.

I sent him this email:

Dear Carsten,

Do you believe that Shamsuddin Faridi Desai should have a wikipedia article?

I'm asking, because I wrote one for him and it was deleted.

The wikipedia editor who deleted it, claimed that Shamsuddin lacked 'notability'.

I am trying to have the article restored.

I would like to have some support from Rudra Veena players that wikipedia does consider 'notable' enough.

I'm attaching a copy of the article.

Thank you for any support.

If you do not feel it is appropriate, then I respect your decision.

Best regards,

Gary Pro

Carsten replied,

Dear Garry,

Sorry for that late reply. Travelling in Europe for concerts and workshops.

I think Shamsuddin definitely deserves a Wikipedia article.

I guess the editor got the impression of lacking notability, not knowing the subject and refering just to the quite limited content of the article.

If you get a bit more material to fill it up with content and references this should be no problem any more.

Best

Carsten

Dear Explicit, please restore the article, Shamsuddin Faridi Desai. Vtranz (talk) 17:40, 30 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Creating categories

Hello in reply to your requesting immediate removal of a newly created category. I am a novice, editor, and I realize that there are no listings in this new category. Which is the founders of Connecticut colony. Is your issue simply that there are no listings yet? It takes me a long time to figure out how to do simple things. Are you allowed to put name listings in this new category If so, please put Major John Mason in there. there are about a dozen people considered founders of the Connecticut colony to also be listed. I really do not have the time to learn all about editing right now. It is OK with me if you delete or remove this category thank you. 73.61.77.202 (talk) 16:26, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Wikipedia page for Highcharts

Hi Explicit,

We noticed that you deleted the Wikipedia page for Highcharts this summer.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Highcharts&action=edit&redlink=1

As we understand it, this was due to a lack of citations and sources.

We have:

Publicly declared that we have a conflict of interest regarding the Wikipedia article Highcharts on our talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Highcharts
At the same time created a draft in our Sandbox that we hope you can review for us: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Highcharts/sandbox

We hope we have understood the process correctly and that this will solve the problem. Highcharts (talk) 12:16, 2 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Matmo

Regarding your recent edit[1], you may wish to note that there's another fork (which is considerably outdated) of the draft about Matmo. 203.145.95.215 (talk) 14:42, 4 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

File:Austin Metcalf.png deletion

Hi Explicit. I'm not sure why your bot archived my original request, but here it is again. I'd appreciate it if you could take a look. I'm following up on File:Austin Metcalf.png.

I saw DatBot's September 17th notice to the uploader about NFCC. This didn't receive a response. Seven days later, the file was deleted. Which NFCC point failed at the time? If possible, could you undelete so I can bring it into compliance?

Thank you! FrodoMarsh (talk) 20:55, 4 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Wikipedia page for Mostafa Taleb

Hello Explicit,

I hope you're doing well. I noticed that the article Mostafa Taleb was soft-deleted following the AfD discussion you closed.
I’d like to understand better what improvements or sources would be needed for the topic to meet Wikipedia’s notability guidelines, so that I can work on recreating it properly in the future.
If possible, could you please share a brief note or suggestion on what was missing or insufficient?

Thank you for your time and help. MssEms2 (talk) 11:54, 5 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
