Archiving

I really think the Archiving protocol on this page needs to be changed, as it stands, archiving should take place immediatly after action is taken on a page, but then the person who requested the undeletion would need to go to the archive to view the resolution, instead of the regular page.

I suggest that all undeletion requests be archived a week after action has taken place, instead of right after action has been taken. Thoughts? – Nubis 14:01, 26 August 2006 (BST)

A week sounds reasonable to me. –Bob Hammero ^{Mod•B'crat•T•A} 18:14, 26 August 2006 (BST)

The page has been updated with this in mind. Looks more like speedy deletions now. – Nubis ^NWO 14:44, 27 August 2006 (BST)

Restoring pages that have already been recreated

What happens? I tried to bring back the old Hambargar Halparz page, but there was already one there. When I undeleted, the screens said that if there was already a page there, the old ones would be in the edit history... but they're not, as far as I can see! Did I stuff up? -- boxy ^{T L ZS Nuts2U DA} 03:51, 18 April 2007 (BST)

Ah, no worries, it was there after a forced refresh (shift + reload) of the page history -- boxy ^{T L ZS Nuts2U DA} 03:56, 18 April 2007 (BST)

I guess sysops no longer have to acknowledge policy or the people of the community. Nubis, you're a good guy, but all of you - there has been such a blatant disregard for policy here, worse than anything else I've seen from someone who is not Grim. As Gnome said, a keep vote puts it to voting, no matter what the criteria say. Therefore, this page was deleted without following proper procedure and should be restored and put to voting, along with #redirectAHLG and (no idea why this is still existing) #redirectNallan. I don't see how you could deny this, policy is pretty clear.--Nallan (Talk) 23:28, 25 October 2008 (BST)

Odd how I got an escalation for adding stuff to closed cases, will SA? Of course he fucking won't, one rules for some, one for the rest of us. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 07:36, 14 May 2009 (BST)

Image undeletions

Anyone know if we can undelete images deleted before the software upgrade, or only after?

If it's only after, probably best to leave the line stricken (as opposed to removing it.) Linkthewindow  Talk  08:26, 26 April 2011 (BST)

Only after. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 10:18, 26 April 2011 (BST)

Thought so, but thanks for clarifying. Linkthewindow  Talk  13:33, 26 April 2011 (BST)

Yep, only after. Date the image was uploaded doesn't seem to matter, though. ~ _{18:16, 26 April 2011}

So we can bring back the ghost images? --Rosslessness 18:21, 26 April 2011 (BST)

Possibly? But why? ~ _{18:41, 26 April 2011}
