Request for undeletion
Hey, I am just writing in regards to the article Glaico França. They won't let me undelete the article on the request page so I am just writing you here. I am well versed with the MMA notability requirements and this subject fits the current criteria for notability. Thanks in advance HeinzMaster (talk) 16:17, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
- @HeinzMaster: If Glaico França now clearly meets WP:GNG and WP:NMMA, you can simply recreate the article. You do not need to request 'un-deletion' as the article was appropriately deleted at the time. If you are specifically asking for the deleted content be userfied so you can work on it as a draft, I don't think that was abundantly clear to JJMC89 or the other reviewers. In any case, five years is a long time and I expect any restored content would be long out of date and starting a new article that meets our guidelines would accomplish the same thing for the same amount of work.

Hey Mkdw, hope you're well! I saw you archived Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/SkepticAnonymous, and from your recent contribs it looks like you were maybe just archiving a whole slew of SPIs that had been actioned. But there was still pretty active discussion on that SPI report about whether or not the block was warranted. Would you mind unarchiving it? GorillaWarfare (talk) 19:17, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
- @GorillaWarfare: Opps, I noticed a clerk had marked it 'closed' and when I looked over the admin section and saw the accounts had been blocked, but I didn't realize some additional comments were being made above. Mkdw talk 19:46, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
- No worries! I figured as much. GorillaWarfare (talk) 20:00, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Mkdw, I'm really sorry if the comment I left on the SPI was hurtful or disrespectful. I meant you no disrespect. That comment came out wrong, what meant to say was "I don't think this SPI should have been opened again" or "I disagree with the re-opening of the SPI". I wasn't trying to start something, and my comment wasn't directed toward or specifically about you, I just noticed the case had been turned back from closed to open. The SPI case was getting way more unwieldy than it needed to be, so seeing it closed and then re-opened, I felt a little frustrated. Sometimes I come across more abrasive than I intend. But given how contentious it was, I understand why you switched it back open. Thank you for being diligent. Sro23 (talk) 22:22, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you Sro23. I appreciate the clarification. Mkdw talk 23:01, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
